There is a famous quote by author Mark Twain that says, “Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things you didn’t do than by the ones you did do.” And you know, I think this quote can really apply to all of us. How often do we spend our time focusing on things that don’t really matter? How often do we spend our days going to work, or school, or with friends without being intentional about spreading the Good News?
In this day and age, it is easy to get caught up in being busy, but I think we have to remind ourselves that following Jesus and proclaiming His Truth is more valuable than anything else because it has eternal ramifications. First Corinthians 10:31 says, “So whether you eat or drink, or whatever you do, do it all to the glory of God”. This is a reminder to live with divine purpose. Daily.
What do you hope to see when you look back on your life twenty years from now? I, for one, want to know that I did all I could to tell the world about God’s truth. I want all of my friends, and family members, even strangers to hear the Good News Gospel. How about you? I challenge you to look for opportunities to reach your world with the news of Jesus today.
