Perspective

Perspective is our compass. Lose perspective…you lose your bearings. Lose your bearings…you lose your direction. Lose your direction…you lose your vision. Lose your vision…you lose your life!

Let me help you put things back into perspective…

I have a question for you….What would you do if you just got the news that you were diagnosed with a terminal disease and you only had 1 week to live? Would you live any different? What things would you do differently? What conversations would you have? What relationships would you patch up? Would you hold your kids and never let go? Would you plead with your friend to trust Christ so you can be reunited with them some day? Would you tell your spouse how much you love her? How would you think differently? Would you focus on the things that really matter? Would you get angry as quickly as you normally do? Would you ask God to give you courage for what you’re about to face? Would your house really mean all that much to you? Your car? Your job?

This changes a lot doesn’t it? Why wait until the end of your life to live your life to the fullest? Think about this. We have the incredible opportunity to create and dream BIG and live it out. Why in the world would we do anything but that? Start living…dream BIG.
