Don't Just Live For Today


Don't just live for today. Think about the consequences. Think about what God wants from you. Try to live a good life each day.

Enjoy today, but don't think only about it. Know that there is so much more to come. Remember that better things are ahead.

Don't just live for today, but do good and make a difference with your life. Don't just live for yourself, but be kind and loving toward others.

There is so much more to life than what we see at this moment. There is so much more than today, so much more than this earth, and we should live like it.

“Do not store up for yourselves treasures on earth, where moths and vermin destroy, and where thieves break in and steal. But store up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where moths and vermin do not destroy, and where thieves do not break in and steal. For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also."
Matthew 6:19-21

Do nothing out of selfish ambition or vain conceit. Rather, in humility value others above yourselves, not looking to your own interests but each of you to the interests of the others.
Philippians 2:3-4

God's Grace Is Given Freely



God didn't ask us to save ourselves or do anything to be saved, but he gives of himself freely.
God doesn't just put our sins a foot from us, but he puts them far, far away. He erases them. He covers them.
God knows that we need grace to live. He knows we need him.
He knows we have all sinned, but he loves us anyway.

As far as the east is from the west,
so far has he removed our transgressions from us.

Psalm 103:12
