What would we do if we only had 24 hours to live? Would we travel or indulge in earthly pleasures? In this passage, we know that in just a short time Paul is be arrested as the Holy Spirit warned him before he went out to Jerusalem. Even though the end was near for him, Paul chose to continue his work for the Glory of God and His Kingdom just as Jesus did up until the moment He was crucified. In Jesus’ final moments, He continued to teach in parables, share the truth in love, and even humbly washed the disciples’ feet. Paul’s love for Christ drove him to live for Christ until his very final moments as well. We are to remember that life is but a vapor, and we must live for Christ as He died for us for at any moment it could be our very last.
