Before I Depart


I came into this world physically born of my two parents.

When I accepted Jesus, I accepted the Word into my heart (spirit).

I died to my old, sinful nature and was spiritually reborn into a new life. 

When I received the Spirit, I received grace to live according to His will for me.

I struggle daily to allow my mind to be transformed by the Word and not the world.

When death is approaching, I hope to have no regrets of what I have done with my life. 

I live this life, therefore, making the best of it before I depart.
