Life and death is not a do-it-yourself project.

How different would today be if you knew it would be your last one on earth before meeting God face-to-face? We should strive to live every day as if it was our last, for one day it will be!

Our days on earth are as a shadow. 1 CHRONICLES 29:15

Life is short; none of us knows how long we have. Live each day as if it were your last—for someday it will be.

Time and tide and the ravages of sin take their toll on the most noble achievements of man.

There is for each man a day, an hour, a minute. The Bible talks in many places about the brevity of life, and the Bible warns that we should be prepared to meet God at all times.

You can trust Christ at this moment. The Bible says, "Now is the accepted time" [2 Corinthians 6:2 KJV]. Don't put it off. Don't say, "I'll think about it." Don't say, "I'll do it tomorrow." Do it right now. At this moment, say yes to Jesus Christ.

Christians ought to carry written in our hearts the solemn truth of how short is our opportunity to witness for Christ and live for Him.

We have tried to enthrone the false gods of money, fame, and human intelligence; but however we try, the end is always the same: "It is appointed unto men once to die" [Hebrews 9:27 KJV].

I've had songs that were spread out over a number of years, and I've written some in ten minutes, and everything in between.

No matter how good of a ball player you were, you can't keep going forever. You're not going to be able to hit .300 when you're 60. You still look around and you think, 'This is weird. Have I missed something?' Well, yeah, you have.

Of how much real happiness we cheat our souls by preferring a trifle to God! We have a general intention of living religion; but we intend to begin tomorrow or next year. The present moment we prefer giving to the world.
