A beautiful prayer from Sam Smith - Rock Bridge Chatsworth Campus Pastor
---------------------
From the Journal of Sam Smith - May 17, 2017
Good morning Jesus. I am working on my following You. I am trying to stop listening to that voice in my head that speaks negatives and leads me to distrust. I am trying to speak Biblical truth to myself - instead of listening to that voice.
Jesus thank You for setting Your face toward Jerusalem and traveling toward Your death for me. I cannot imagine that every step You took, You knew You were one step closer to death.
Wait! Wait!! Every step I take I am also one step closer to death! Reality set in yesterday when at the DMV I asked the lady when I would have to get my next drivers license. She said 8 years. I will be 63.
Lord Jesus these next 8 years, these next 8 months, these next 8 days, these next 8 minuets, these next 8 seconds: I want to follow You in making a difference for Your Kingdom to come! I cannot and will not do it alone. Jesus I need You more today than ever.
I love You Jesus!

May we all count the moments today, and live each one in the reality that we are one step closer to death... And to eternal life!
