THE PRIVILEGE OF LIFE

SCRIPTURE: Neither is worshipped with men’s hands, as though he needed anything, seeing he giveth to all life, and breath, and all things; Acts 17:26.

THOUGHT FOR THE DAY: The best way to handle the privilege of life is to use it to fulfil the purpose for which God gave it to you.

It has been established that life is a privilege. It is a privilege because no one woke up in the morning because of the force of their decision to wake up. There were people who slept and could not wake up the following morning. Before they slept, there was no trace of sickness in their body. They slept in health, but woke up in death.

So, life is a privilege. No one is alive because they are too powerful, too wise or too talented to die. No one can be so connected to people that their connections kept them alive.
This means, for every single second we live, we must see life as a privilege, and not a right.

I heard the story of one American president, Theodore Roosevelt. This man was very tough, aggressive, and audacious. He was a man given to adventure; a man who could fight anything.

One day, he slept and died in his sleep. And someone wrote about him and said, “Only in sleep could he have died because if he was awake, he would have fought with death.”
You see, this man was very powerful, but not too powerful to bow for death.

Beloved, life is a privilege; do not abuse the privilege of life. God gave your life to you on trust, and he expects you to maximize it. The best way to handle the privilege of life is to use it to fulfil the purpose for which God gave it to you.

Beloved, don’t live as though your life is a product of your personal merit. See your life as a privilege, and never abuse the privilege of life.

Remember this: The best way to handle the privilege of life is to use it to fulfil the purpose for which God gave it to you.
