Life is short; don't waste it.

As every single second passes, we really hardly think about how fast time actually slips by. We're left to live the lives governed by the actions we made years, hours, even minutes before the present. Each and every second that goes by is gone--gone without remorse; you see, time is ruthless. Time ticks down to the point of our death...and it still continues. We have no power over it; it's an endless being that pushes us through life whether we want it to or not. We cannot grasp a moment when it's gone. Memories become precious only because we can't relive those moments outside of our minds; they become the only connection between us and the moments of our lives that have long passed away.
My point here is that every single moment counts. As each second of our lives ticks away, we have the choice of either wasting it or using it to craft our intellect, bodies, and hearts into something more. Friends, we only have less than 100 years of life to live. Don't waste your years chasing something that won't matter in the end. Earthly possessions and successes pale in comparison to that which you can gain through the saving work of Jesus Christ: eternal life. 
Live for Him; Jesus is the only thing worth living for.
