The Maker awaits us all. Why do we act so surprised when He comes a knocking. Yes, my kidney function is declining but we are all going to go. Sometimes it comes suddenly and sometimes we have some time to think about it.
Life is indeed very precious. And we can’t always choose our time. In fact we never know for sure. All we can do is wring every bit of life out of every day, every hour, minute given to us. And praise the Lord in the process. That is all we can do. Praise The Lord for every minute, every day afforded to us.

Something endearing about my wife is she does not want to harm any thing even an ant. Life to her is very precious. She will release an ant or a spider she finds in the house gently outside.
It is because of her, we have seven cats and four dogs. Of course I have learned to love pets and dearly love each one. Each pet has their own distinct personality.
It is true you can’t easily go away when you have a menagerie of this size but to me that is a small price to pay. Each pet is lovely in their own right. And they give much more to me then I give to them.
Her sanctity of life and love of pets is definitely a quality of her I have fallen in love with. And every day I am reminded of this by each pet I come in contact with.

You Can Change the World
Life is very precious. Every day. Yes, we can squander some time. And that is okay. But if you live as if your life does not matter, it is a life of despair. You have to feel what you do matters and you can change the world. It does not revolve around you. Nevertheless you have to feel you make a difference in someone’s life otherwise it is a squandered life. All we have to do is look around at the lives God put next to you. There are always needs out there and hurting people. You have to figure out how you can reach out to these people your lives are intertwined with. You just have to open your eyes and listen. The people are always there. We were meant to love. We are wired that way.
