ONE LIFE TO LIVE
This morning I went to church, Morning Star academy in Jakarta. As usual, there are some food hawkers along the road to the curch. I prefer morning service to afternoon service because there were no car fumes, the sun not too hot, and I can saw some flowers were glooming.
It was interesting because I found three main points when Pak Yahya (priest of the curch) gave speech. To live in this world we have to have these: wisely, purposely, and passionately. I always reckon how can I have these points in my life when troubles come. It is not easy as we think but as he told me that we have to keep our spirit in order to continue our next life. The everlasting life.
An inspiring illustration from him, when he went home he passed cemetery near his apartment. He thought about people’s life. By this I mean that the life of people is only divided into two parts. The first is when they were born and the second is when they die. And these parts are only separated by a line like a dash in the gravestone.
We have to imagine and muse, how far our life will go? How long will we live? Or have we done something meaningful while we live?
In conclusion, I would say that for some people life is not long. In other word, they have short time doing their activities when they life. Therefore, use the time wisely, purposely, and passionately. All thing that we have done anly for God’s glory. And find the purpose of our life.
