This morning I was thinking back to when I was in high school. I was not yet a Christian and I wasted many years and caused my parents a lot of grief. I attended a pretty immoral high school, was unsaved, and partied a lot.
I started thinking, "I wish I could go back as I am now and live those years all over again." With God's help I would have witnessed to my friends instead of helping lead them further into sin. I would have been a light instead of spreading darkness. I would have been a joy to my parents instead of a weekly cause for heartache. How cool it would be to go back if only it were possible.
Then I thought, "I wonder if I will ever think back to this time in my life and wish I would have been more for the Lord." All these thoughts reminded me that today is the day to pursue that life that is radically obedient and sold out to God. Because we can't get today back after it's gone.
"We must work the works of him who sent me while it is day; night is coming, when no one can work.
(FYI, many houses here in Costa Rica don't have hot water heaters. So, we have these shower heads that heat the water inside themselves right before the water falls on your head. Yes, that is an electrical wire going into the top)
