Awoke with this odd title question this morning.
Odd because YES, my son who does all my computer updates
knows exactly where the password that unlocks my computer is....
the password that is the key to all the 1,000s of ideas and thoughts and songs
even after I die.
WITHOUT THE PASSWORD, all of these may be lost forever..... since I'm not "important enough" to merit a computer expert seeking to "break in" to my ideas.
I have used it more and more as I've prepared for that eventual, "someday" day --
even though, as I've had to reassure one daughter especially,
As I listened to a radio sermon yesterday, I remembered something long forgotten:
I've been preparing for the day "AFTER I DIE" starting back when I was in college.
I was in a rush to finish high school, so I skipped a grade so I could "get on with life."
I was in a rush to finish college and grad school, so I finished two majors in 3-1/2 years and an 18-month Master's Degree program in 12 months.
I was in a rush to have God's gifts of children, so we never cared about "timing" as we excitedly waited for each new precious gift.
I stayed... stay.... in a rush to ACCOMPLISH whatever God wants....

The day is coming.... I'm not scared.
The day is coming.... I eagerly prepare --
God's given me SO much music and
Words from Him to SHARE....
to me so I can serve YOU and share YOUR Words bold-ly. _ _ God,
Jesus said quite truly in John 17: 16:
We're not _ of this world, like Him. I

"AFTER I DIE."
How often do any of us think of that phrase?
I have used it more and more as I've prepared for that eventual, "someday" day --
"No, it's on not my calendar!"

Not an "anxious" rush.
Just CONSTANTLY AWARE of the RUSHING of Time....
And seeking to use God's gift of MINUTES as well as months. PRAYER -- Song draft ©2013 DianaDee Osborne
