Life is not measured by the breaths we take but by the moments that take our breath away.

just found this on alex's profile..and i just realized how very true it is. it doesnt matter how many years you spend here on earth; it only matters how you choose to spend the little time you have here. id rather leave this life at the age of 30 with a life worthy in God's eyes than live to the ripe age of 80 while doing nothing to glorfiy my Lord and Savior. recently, i have experienced such an unbelieveable joy that has truly taken my breath away. first it was seeing my discipleship group develop an awesome passion for witnessing to nonbelievers. then 2 of my friends accept Christ into their hearts. and then it was the car accident, which im sure has altered my view on life forever. i have never felt this close to God, even though ive been a Christian for 14 years. i give all the glory to God, and may His name be praised in all that i do.
