What will you do with your one extra day?

 


Every four years we get to celebrate an extra day in the calendar. For those born on the 29th of February they have to wait an awfully long time in between their birthdays, but I am sure that many of them celebrate either side of this mysterious day :) 

As we take a moment to reflect on this unique day, it is rather profound that we get 1 extra day in this leap year - that is a whole extra 24 hours to enjoy life. So, what are you going to do on your extra day? (Or do you just see it as a normal day on the calendar?)

It is interesting that if we asked the question in a different way, we may think about things from another point of view. "What if you only had 24 hours to live - how would you spend that day?" 

I am sure that I wouldn't be sitting on my computer, or watching mindless TV series, or reading the classifieds, or worrying about petty matters. We would probably want to spend the extra day with the most important and valuable people in our lives! 

What do you think? 

Psalm 139:16 - Your eyes saw my unformed body; all the days ordained for me were written in your book before one of them came to be.

Living in Grace
