Daily Nugget

     Tuesday, May 20th, 2014, Today's cherished Nugget from guest blogger Pastor Bill.

The Roman scholar Cato started to study Greek when he was over eighty. Someone asked why he tackled such a difficult task at his age. Cato said, “It’s the earliest age I have left.”

If we have not achieved our goals, or even started, now is the time. As Cato said, this age is the earliest time we have left. Every day is a gift and we are stewards of that gift. The fact that God has given us another day, week, or year (this is my youngest daughter’s birthday) means He still has a purpose and plan for us. We must live life to the fullest, and use every opportunity to learn something new so to increase in our value to Him.

“This is the day which the LORD hath made; we will rejoice and be glad in it” ( Psalm 118:24).

God, direct my paths, open my eyes to see the opportunities around me, and grant me the wisdom to follow You wherever You lead.  Amen.
