a reminder, a challenge,
reading these words of Peter
the urgency, the sense of
import,
knowing he was approaching
death
that the forces were aligned
against him
seeking to stop him from
sharing the gospel
thinking about the pastor’s
words -
what would I do differently
if I knew, if I had one year
to live
if I had a timeline spoken,
uttered,
laid out clearly before me, my
thoughts?
how would my life be
different
what would I do, what would
I say
if I knew more surely, an
expiration day
a countdown clock, a time, a
date certain
the end of my days, my
journey,
would I actually change,
would I live on purpose
would I make a plan, set it
in motion,
taking stock, making amends,
repenting,
changing, forgiving, seeking
forgiveness,
if I knew, if I had one year
to live
my days already numbered (as
they are already)…
