Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies: thou anointest my head with oil; my cup runneth over. Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life:
~ Psalm 23:5-6a
Pastor Lisa Bernheisel’s video link in last week’s Christian Playbook post (HERE) was a valuable description of her cancer journey. “Running from death” begins transforming to “dancing with death.” And doesn’t that fit nicely with the imagery of the 5th and 6th verses of the 23rd Psalm?
Lisa’s commentary has resulted in two additional pages of the At the End section (HERE) in the Binder of a Lifetime. When describing “Your Best, Last Day” with those prompts, it provides a joyful reminder of the gratitude we can experience while dancing with life (and death.)
PROSPECTIVE ACTIVITY: spend time with the last two pages of the At the End document (HERE). This allows you to describe people you would want accompanying you on that Best Last Day and some of the activities. Then consider: which of these activities could you do today? Why not have that enjoyment again and again, prior to that last day?
Enjoy the day, filled with the Spirit!
