Lord,
remind me how brief my time on earth will be.
Remind me that my days are numbered – how fleeting my life is. Rescue me from my rebellion.

God did it again. He sent an undeniable message. As these occurrences add up, the sum proves

It was very helpful to identify my
current slump as a season. Just naming
my slump made it a temporary stage with the promise of change. Honestly, I felt better immediately. In hindsight, I’m not surprised I stumbled

God’s second message was Do not lack diligence; be fervent in

in history never to be relived again.”
OK, God, you’re coming through loud and clear.
