The Day Approaches!

Today is the eve of my 20th birthday.
It hardly seems like I have been alive for two decades!
Time seems to pass with paces both fast and slow simultaneously. Time what a word. What it means! How little it means to a Christian, and yet how much. With time being life on earth; The time between birth and death, there is so little of it. How great the work we have to do in such a small amount of time. Years... They seem so long, yet a life time passes in a blink. Some lives are so much shorter than others... Some "Never were alive" being born still and unbreathing--Other live to be 100 and still proclaim that life is too short.
My Christian family, we have such a short amount of time. So much of it wasted in days of ignorance. So much of it wasted on fleshly wants. How much more we need to be working for the Lord. How much more we need to be serving, striving, running the race that leads to Jesus and heaven.
How much...
How little...
Time.
My earnest prayer is that my life will be a testimony; That I would stay humble and close to the Lord all the steps of my life. Here on the eve of being alive 20 years, I wonder... How much more can I do for Jesus? Am I doing my best for Him? The song comes to mind...
"I wonder have I done my best for Jesus,
Who died upon to cruel tree.
I think of His great sacrifice at Calv'ry...
I know my Lord has done His best for me.
How many are the lost that I have lifted?
How many are the chained I helped to free?
I wonder have I done my best for Jesus
when He has done so much for me."
There is coming a day when I will no longer serve Him here. No more chances to testify of His love. No more lost souls wondering needing Jesus, but burning, and crying... left behind.
I need to be active for Jesus... for all those around and needing to hear of Him.
