The Last Week of Life

If you knew it were your last week of life, how would you spend it? Would you remember to pay old debts or call old friends? Would you make amends with your family? Within that last week of life, what will be the most important issues to you? Do you visit a far away land or just have someone close and hold their hand? Take a moment to consider how you will spend your time, please spend it wisely. I pray that the precious last week of everyone’s life be spent in joy and peace. Take time everyday to make time to say all the things that are most important within your heart, because all too often we never know when our last week of life on earth will be.
