Sunday Lessons: It's not how long but how well you lived that matters.

"The most tragic life is spent pursuing things 

that don't matter at all in the end."

We all have our fair share of regrets. Some are life-altering, while others are easier to get over, like eating that extra slice of pizza or buying that overpriced pair of shoes.

I've always been afraid that one day I'll look back and regret not having taken the chance to do something, to be something. I'm afraid of arriving at the finish line only to realize I was running the wrong race all along.

Jesus has shown us that in one short lifetime, so much could be done. So much could be changed. So many lives could be touched. We don't need immortality. We don't even need a century. If we make the most out of what we're given, if we make the right choices, the number of years wouldn't even matter.

"The days are long but the years are short."

We're here today and gone tomorrow. So live. Laugh. See the world. Touch lives. Focus on what you have instead of what you don't have. Tell the people you love that you love them. Be happy. Be grateful.

"Stop counting the hours. Live out in the world."
