In Case of No Tomorrow


 After yesterday's scare (see here
it causes one to re-evaluate today!
My stress-level has dropped significantly.
My to-do list feels like a Christmas present!

Matthew 6:25
Therefore I tell you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat or drink; 
or about your body, what you will wear. 
Is not life more than food, and the body more than clothes?
... then down to verse 33&34;
But seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, 
and all these things will be added unto you.
 Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, 
for tomorrow will worry about itself.  
Today has enough trouble of its own.
 
So, in case of no tomorrow...

Mend those bridges that need mending
Spend more time stressing out less
Keep no record of wrong-doing
Fill your face with happiness
Touch today with humble rev’rence
Life is fragile at its best
Hold the hands within your reaching
And trust God to hold the rest
Make a memory worth keeping
Thank the Giver for the chance
If you have two feet, my darling
Then, my love, by all means, dance
Do not put off til tomorrow
That which should be done today
Don’t let imminence of sorrow
Steal your present joy away
Make the most of vital moments
Who knows when death wields its rod
And last but the most important
Make ready to meet your God
