Are you living a self-absorbed life? Is there no anguish? Is there not a cause? Doesn't your heart cry out, “Oh God, something has to be done"?
How do you plan to use your short years on this planet to do what God has entrusted you to do?
The clock is ticking, tick-tock, tick-tock, tick-tock...
I hope this conversation between Hanaya and Yuri awakens a greater diligence to own your call like never before. I hope you will faithfully steward your gifting, time, money, and resources to be less about yourself and more about revealing Jesus to the world.
Come to the end of your life—your one and only precious, God-given life—and let the last great work of your life, before you give an account to your Creator, be this: playing softball and collecting shells. Picture them before Christ at the great day of judgment: “Look, Lord. See my shells.” That is a tragedy.
– John Piper
