SABRINA
Did you know that on this day in 1564 William Shakespear was baptized? In 1912, the first home run was hit in Fenway Park, 1986 was the Chernobyl nuclear disaster, and in 2015 a 6.7 aftershock of the earthquake in Napal set off an avalanche on Mt. Everest in which 17 people were killed. And today’s news will be tomorrow’s history.
While none of the dates I mentioned may be of significant importance to you, I assure you they are to someone. As the soap opera reminds us “like sands through the hourglass, so are the days of our lives. Our lives are a part of history, and history of legacy.
When someone reflects back, it may not be written on “this day in history,” but will you have said or done something that affected the life and perhaps history of someone around you? When thought of in this way, it is a sobering thought. Our words and actions do matter. May we live the words found in Joshua 24:15 “Choose this day who you will serve, but as for me and my house, we will serve the Lord.” Living that verse, our history will assuredly be profound! Have a blessed day!
