One-Minute Devotionals reveal in a single sentence, underlying truth about specific Scripture.

February 4, 2012

For through me your days will be many, and years will be added to your life.
Pr 9:11

I am living today to do what God wanted me to do yesterday. 3849.

Learn it.
How much is enough?

Live it.
What is life to you? Is it an experience or a workshop? Most people let it happen and react to what life brings them. On the other hand, some are constantly learning and each day is another opportunity to put it into action. Granted, no one starts from day one to the end doing one or the other. But the ones who are most happy are the ones who choose to do things today most will put off and never do.

I'd never heard the term, "Bucket List," until a movie made it popular. But like everyone else, I have things I think I'd like to do before I can't. I'd like to encourage someone today that God wants to encourage. Doing something unexpected and good for someone who never knows I did it, ranks right up there. Showing someone love who doesn't feel loved is like something Jesus would do. And best of all, having an intimate conversation with my Creator confirms my choices and inspires me to do more. So, what's on your list?

Pray it
Today, Jesus, life is not only sweeter than before, but clearer.
