My mind travelled from the past to present, as I browse those old photos from the past, old memories was recalled, some places I've visited seems like a dream to come true, but looking back about the past was unclear. I thank God for those old pictures,I was refresh, and feelings was renewed.
As I watched those old memories of mine, God recalled to me what I have been gone through in life. And it was about my twenty-two years of existence here on Earth. The Maker Himself showed me about the true meaning of life, especially when I meet Jesus along the way. He guided my every steps, every decisions I make, and those learning experiences that I need to remember. I remember those things I need to pursue and I need to improve on as well.
There are pictures that remind me as how many times I have been hurt when I learn how to love, and those pictures that I have been successful to some challenges I encounter in life. Did you find yourself alone in a room as well? if you miss someone? or some places that you wish to visit for the second time around? I am like you, I was a girl who dream and keep dreaming to achieve my goal in life.
I thought, dreaming and achieving my goal is the true meaning of life. But like those old pictures, that has old memories, life may come and go, and if you will not do anything about it, life would be useless and worthless. Some pictures leave a life of legacy. But like Jesus, I realized that He did not leave us any of His pictures but His written word, and for Him living a life of legacy and memories is like writing His Word in the tablet of our hearts if we chose to obey and follow His will, He will leave us His greatest memories.
I have keep those photos of mine with different faces of emotions, I have found myself silent, lonely, confuse, inlove, was about to cry but most of the time "Joyful". Because I know human as we are, we are not exempted not to experience any of those listed emotions. We are humans and as we all know we are about to die and leave the Earth someday. Did we try to take time to be silent before the Lord and think about how we make used of our borrowed life from our Maker? When was the last time that we thank Him about those old pictures that we have? parties that we have attended, graduations that we have achieved, strangers that become our friends, awards that we have received? thats the evident that our Creator, our Father is a God who wants us to experience the fullness of life with Him.
I thought that my last sets of pictures is on my funeral. I admit if I did not meet my Savior Jesus and ignore His calling, I am afraid to die, death is my fear. And as I meet Him, Life begins. As I continue to read and know the true meaning of my death as I read Gods Word everyday, I understand and saw the true meaning of life. Death is more exciting as I see it clearly that its picture was about meeting my Savior face to face. Did you see the picture? how could we respond if Jesus will asked us someday "My Child,I want to asked you how did you spend your life for my names sake? Are we confident enough to say.. "Yes Lord, I live a life of legacy for You", or we will bow down of heads and be silent while we think about the short time we spend on Earth was meaningless..
Let us come to think about it.........
Lets meditate. Let us list down the things we did for Him as a sign of our worship. Let us list down how many things we let our own will master us. Lets start to live a life of legacy for God and Savior Jesus.
