Thought for Today: Friday November 14

Some years ago, one of my students asked me what had been my biggest surprise in life. I replied with: “the brevity of life”. Almost before we know it, the years have passed and life is almost over. On one hand, life’s brevity should challenge us. If ever we are to live for the Moshiach and share Him with others, it must be now. Yeshua said: “The night is coming when no-one can work” {John 9:4}. But life’s brevity should also comfort us. Life is short – and before us is eternity! Do not live as if this life will continue forever. It will not! Live each day with eternity in view.
