WHY Seize the Day? OPPORTUNITY (LIFE) KNOCKS ONLY ONCE! No Reincarnation! ~ John 9:4 ~ Mark 6:31

WHY Seize the Day? TIME IS TOO PRE- CIOUS TO WASTE! ~ Eph. 5:16 ~ “Lose an hour in the morning, and you will be look- ing for it the rest of the day.” – Lord Chesterfield

WHY Seize the Day? IT PROVIDES ETERNAL LIFE! ~ 1 Tim. 6:19 ~ 2 Cor. 3:2-3

HOW Seize the Day? DON’T SAY, “I DON’T HAVE THE TIME”!

HOW Seize the Day? MENTALLY PRE- PARE AND USE OPPORTUNITIES! ~ 2 Kgs. 20:1-11 ~ Acts 24:25

HOW Seize the Day? USE TIME PROFITABLY! The heights by great men reached and kept, Were not attained by sudden flight. But they, while their companions slept, Were toiling upward in the night.

HOW Seize the Day? DON’T PRO- CRASTINATE! ~ Luke 2:59-60 ~ Eze. 12:17-28
