Living Every Moment

I started reading Tuesdays with Morrie by Mitch Albom for the second time a couple days ago, and through it I am reminded of the sanctity of life and the urgency of God's calling. The book follows the life of a professor plagued by a terminal disease and focuses on how that feeble old man decides to take advantage of his time and live a fulfilled life. He doesn't mope about his troubles, he doesn't give up all hope, and he doesn't frivolously engulf himself in every pleasure of this world. Morrie makes every second count and lives in the moment. We are called by God to be living for Him NOW with EVERY BREATH that we take! Who are we to waste the time we have on this earth? Yes, this part of life is only temporary and cannot compare to eternity in Heaven, but we are here for a purpose and God commands us to fulfill that purpose! I think we all can take a lesson from Morrie about living life to the fullest and for the right reasons. Make every moment count, you never know when it could be your last.
