Preach your own funeral…

Today i had the honor of speaking at one of the most Godly ladies funerals that I have ever known.  As I was at the funeral home last night with the family and watched the memorial video of family pictures that they put together, I was struck with this verse…

“So be careful how you live. Don’t live like fools, but like those who are wise. Make the most of every opportunity in these evil days.  Don’t act thoughtlessly, but understand what the Lord wants you to do.”  Ephesians 5:15-17 NLT

One of the things that I commented on today was that some funerals are easier than others.  Mrs. Betty’s was easy… not because she wont be missed, but because she preached her own funeral by the way she lived her life. 

Are you making the most of every opportunity?  You may not realize it, but you “preach” EVERY day that you have breath… the question is what message are you sending?
