In the world that we live in, we mostly have things the way we want them, when we want them, and how we want them. We prioritize what we put our attention to and then when we decide to get serious. After all, there's no urgency right?
I would beg to differ with the above statement. As a pastor, I encounter many people that are totally unprepared for illness as well as death. Usually, it turns out to be a chaotic mess of people reaching for straws as they go through this very difficult time.
Look at it this way: If I told you to prepare for whatever will come into your life for the next 24 hours, or, I told you to prepare for the next 10 years, which would have more depth, personal meaning and importance?
You're choice.
