An Opportunity Once Lost

I am not sure about you but I have some situations in my life I wish I can turn back but … they are gone.

The clock ticks, the time passes, the years go by and every moment counts.

Take that exam, go for that interview, visit that person, give that gift, encourage that person, take care of your parents, help that person, say ‘ I am sorry’, say ‘ I love you’. 

We should make the most of every opportunity we have. Especially in relationships with one another.  

Give that advice, encourage that person. 

When you have the opportunity to show love to someone, show it. When you have the opportunity to say I love you, do so. When you have the opportunity to fight for what you love the most, do so. 

When you have the oportunity to speak out or speak up about those burning matters inside of you, do so.

Time does not wait for any one and you might never have that opportunity again. 

Tell your parents, “ I love you and I appreciate all you have done for me.” 

Love and take care of your parents while they are alive and you have the chance to. When your parents are gone that opportunity to love on and appreciate them is gone.

Take care of your siblings while you can. These are people from the same family as you,  so you should shower love on them.

Tell your children you love them, be there for them and encourage them. You are their biggest fan.

Be a blessing to relatives in need, you might not have that opportunity again and an indelible mark is left with whoever is blessed by your generosity. 

Tell that person you love him or her, no matter what. He or she probably needs to hear this from you.  

Do not give up on challenges you might face when you have someone you love and want to spend the rest of your life with.  Do not be afraid either. Hold on to the person you love, trust God and God will definitely make it all worthwhile at the end of it all. 

Hold on always to the promise of God that says “All things work together for good to those who love God and are called acording His purpose”.

Romans 8:28
