Do You Think About Your Death?

By Jim on Thu, 01/18/18

Death
Francis Chan

As difficult as it is, we need to be mindful of death. We must make decisions with our day of death in mind. Please, please, please consider spending just ten minutes in solitude today, meditating about your own funeral. Imagine standing before a God who “dwells in unapproachable light” (1 Timothy 6:16). But don’t stop there. Perhaps ponder some major life decisions after meditating on death. Your heart, the seat of decision-making, will then be better conditioned to decide where to live, what to drive, and which shoes to buy.

Do not grumble against one another, brothers, so that you may not be judged; behold, the Judge is standing at the door.
