| Every breath we take is a blessing from God. Yesterday is gone, today is now, tomorrow hasn't happened yet. The only time is now, we need to live in the moment. Most of us are living for the future getting ahead during this life. We miss out on the now moments. Too busy, too tired, not enough time. I never met anyone on their deathbed that said I wish I had spent more time working so I could get more.
Because when you're down at those final moments of your life, you realize what really matters. You have the ultimate perspective. Unfortunately, at that point it's a little too late to do any things about it. Have you ever seen a Hearst with a trailer hitch?
One of greatest lessons would be the wisdom to recognize critical moments and decisions when they happened instead of at the end of your life, when it's too late to do anything about them.
You have to decide what your priorities truly are, what it is that is truly important to you. What does success look like to you? What do you really stand for and what do you spend your time, energy, and money? Theses things need to be clear in your mind and your heart so that you have your feet solidly on the ground and your compass sensitive to the direction you really want to go. If you aren't already clear about who you are and where you want to be, it may be awfully hard to keep your balance once the crisis hits.
For example , among the things I value most in my life is my personal relationship with Jesus Christ, to me it's a solid foundation, and prepares me to get through the crisis. I found this perspective dealing with cancer. Words are very powerful because you believe what you say to yourself. I sat in my truck in front of the doctors office, prayed God Lay Your hand of grace over me to get through this surgery, radiation, chemo, guide me to be a vessel for You. I started a prayer warrior list in Ebarrelracing, then God guided me to BHW, I post my personal journey every morning on here. Yes my perspective has changed, it takes daily commentment, to take time for me in prayer with God, taking family time , with elderly parents and family we have get togethers at least every other weekend, not just holidays. I call or text my sisters, mom and dad everyday. I cherish these moments and will not let a day go by that they know they cross my mind. I go on Facebook and encourage others that are hurting and are in need of a kind word. We need to live in such a way that those who know you but don't know God will come to know God because they know you.
For it is WITH God all things are possible
Father God, guide me today to do all things that bring glory and honor to You Amen. This is my daily prayer.
Psalm 16:1 Perserve me , O God, for in You I put my trust. 2 O my soul, you have said to The Lord, You ARE my Lord, my goodness is nothing apart from You.
Have a BLESSED PURPOSEFUL Day!  CELEBRATE this moment you won't regret it!!!
