“Most of us, if we knew we only had one month to live, would live differently. We would be more authentic about who we are and more deliberate about how we spent our time. But such a contrast begs the question: what keeps us from living this way now?
....While many of the people I’ve known who are facing death made radical changes in order to die well, occasionally I meet some who change very little. It’s not that they are unwilling to change. It’s that they have lived so deliberately and so authentically that the news of the end of this life doesn’t turn them upside down. Of course they grieve and struggle with the news... but they take comfort in knowing that they have been living focused on what matters most to them: their relationships with the ones they love, their relationship with the God of the universe, and the fulfillment of their unique purpose on this earth.”
Loving this book!!! “One Month to Live,” Kerry & Chris Shook
