We don't know when the world is going to end. It could be tomorrow. So why don't we live everyday like it's our last? If we started living like that, then would we take more risks? Or would we just stay under our safety blankets? Would we make sure that everyone we came in contact with knew about salvation through Jesus? Or would we just go on about our business?
We all have this one life that God gave us. We only have one shot on earth to fulfill the "great commission" which says "...Therefore go and make disciples of all nations baptizing them in the name of the father and of the sun and of the holy spirit, and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded" Matthew 28:19, 20. Those were some of Jesus' last words to the disciples. If we lived everyday like it was our last then would we as Christians work harder at making sure that it was fulfilled?
For life in general we should always be living each day like it's our last.
When you say goodbye to someone, say it like it's the last time you're going to see them.
Don't stress about things that aren't worth fretting over.
Spend time with the people you love instead of doing something that can be done later.
Most of all, don't ever go to sleep at night angry or with regrets.
My motto in life that I try to live up to is to always take risks. We have one chance to live life to its fullest, so why not do something your scared of? Chances are after it's over, you won't regret it.

And even if you do take a risk and it goes bad. The ride usually makes up for the destination ;)
