REFERENCE 1 Corinthians 15:57, 58 [Message] But now in a single victorious stroke of Life, all three—sin, guilt, death—are gone, the gift of our Master, Jesus Christ. Thank God! 58 With all this going for us, my dear, dear friends, stand your ground. And don’t hold back. Throw yourselves into the work of the Master, confident that nothing you do for him is a waste of time or effort.
1 Corinthians 15:57,58 [ESV] But thanks be to God, who gives us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ. 58 Therefore, my beloved brothers, be steadfast, immovable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, knowing that in the Lord your labor is not in vain.
EXPLORATION
What does steadfast, immovable, always abounding in the work of the Lord look like.
Ponder these thoughts from Gail Goodwin:
Our time here is finite and life is a precious gift. Each day we have 86,400 seconds to use in any way we’d like. We can’t save the ones we don’t use. We can’t bank them for a rainy day. Money won’t buy more. Use them, or lose them. When I get quiet and think of how to best use my time, this is what I hear….
Celebrate life!
Be grateful.
Tell those you love that you love them.
Focus on what matters and let go of what doesn’t.
Dream big and live life!
Play full out.
Be happy.
Play and don’t take yourself or the world so seriously.
Laugh with others and at yourself.
Follow your heart, not the voice of your fears.
Love yourself so you can love others.
Be the best friend you can be.
Share hugs.
Choose to love with all your heart.
Set high goals and take action daily.
Be generous and give back.
Be healthy and remember to breathe.
Forgive others and yourself.
Live with no regrets.
Connect to the Divine in your own way.
Go deep and know that the answers are within.
You are a part of something so much great that will live forever.
Spread your wings and fly!
As time marches on, the one thing that I know for sure….
The only thing we have is time.
How will you use your 86,400 seconds today?
APPLICATION
I'm going to work on the list

Father,
