Your Life Is a Gift—Cherish It:
Acts 17:25
He Himself gives all people life and breath and all things
A gift is a meaningful expression of love from the giver. It is often carefully chosen, thoughtfully prepared, and sometimes costly. The giver invests money, time, effort, and sacrifice, because they desire the best for the one receiving it. Sadly, recipients do not always appreciate the value of a gift. Some minimise it, ridicule it, neglect it, or take it for granted.
God gave life as a gift to us. Yet, how often do we stop and thank Him for it? We may say, “It is my life and my choice,” but ultimately, our lives belong to the One who gave them to us.
One day, we will give an account to God for how we lived the life He entrusted to us. Cherish it. Live it gratefully. And use it to glorify the one who gave it.
Shalom.
