Thought for Wednesday May 23


Blessed are the poor in spirit; the Kingdom of heaven is theirs!
For he can see that wise men die,
and likewise the senseless and the stupid pass away,
leaving to others their wealth.
Blessed are the poor in spirit; the Kingdom of heaven is theirs!

James 4: 13 – 17  Beloved: Come now, you who say,  "Today or tomorrow we shall go into such and such a town, spend a year there doing business, and make a profit"– you have no idea what your life will be like tomorrow.  You are a puff of smoke that appears briefly and then disappears.

Does this passage make me a little uncomfortable?  Can I have a lasting effect on the world even if I am just a puff of smoke?

Action:  Spend a few minutes in the morning thinking about how you can use this day to make a difference.  Spend a few minutes at night reviewing how you did.
