If you didn’t take notes, you’re in luck. If you missed them, here they are. I thought, as a reminder of some wise counsel we received this week that we needed to put this to print. So, I asked Corey if we could have a do-over, and give you his list of 25 things, again. Here they are:
1. Floss every night before you brush
2. Never go grocery shopping while you are hungry.
3. Change the oil in your car every three thousand miles.
4. Never buy new technology.
5. Don’t buy anything with credit except your house and education.
6. After you graduate, read a book or two a month.
7. Lay your clothes out the night before — it will save you time in the morning.
8. Always get the name of the customer service person you are talking to.
9. Keep an “in-case-I-die” folder.
10. Be critical in your thinking, but not critical in your spirit.
11. Finish strong and with character in everything you do.
12. Love people, all people, regardless of the team they cheer for.
13. Be careful what you talk about in front of your children.
14. God first, then family, then the ministry.
15. Remember that God does not need you, but he really wants to use you to advance His Kingdom.
16. Let God use you to the fullest.
17. Remember, you are going to die.
18. Remember, this side of heaven is not your home, and you will always be homesick.
19. Have an accountability and prayer partner.
20. Remember that we are all one.
21. Be faithful in the little things.
22. Love the Church.
23. God’s will for your life is this: to live as Christ.
24. Remember the most important things in life.
25. God is enough.
Thank you, Corey MacPherson. Our lives are richer because God allowed our paths to cross.
