The Latin phrase 'Carpe diem' means 'Seize the day.' We truly aren’t promised tomorrow. Like the old saying goes, “Live each day as though it were your last.” When your last moment comes, will you look back and say, “I lived exactly as the Lord wanted me to?” Proverbs 27:1- “Boast not thyself of to morrow; for thou knowest not what a day may bring forth.” Matthew 6:34 - “Take therefore no thought for the morrow: for the morrow shall take thought for the things of itself. Sufficient unto the day is the evil thereof.”
Are you living as though you won’t have any regrets? Have you told those closest to you, “I love you”, asked for forgiveness for any wrongdoing, and/or forgiven those who have hurt you? Have you been thankful for each little blessing? What if you woke up tomorrow with only the things you thanked God for today?
John 10:10 - “The thief cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly.” Psalms 90:12 - “So teach us to number our days, that we may apply our hearts unto wisdom.”
Friend, tomorrow may never come ... for you ... or someone you love. Before the sun goes down each day, right the wrongs.
Isaiah 55:6-7 – “Seek ye the LORD while he may be found, call ye upon him while he is near: 7 Let the wicked forsake his way, and the unrighteous man his thoughts: and let him return unto the LORD, and he will have mercy upon him; and to our God, for he will abundantly pardon.”
If you don't know Jesus as Saviour, Carpe diem!
