Bucket List

In the West, we have a phrase when someone dies. We say, “He kicked the bucket.” So, the term “bucket list” came from a list people make of things they want to do or accomplish before they die.

The Lord has provided for me so that I was able to do several things on my list. But, I was reading in Proverbs and found a bucket list that was rather profound.

“Two things I request of You (deprive me not before I die): remove falsehood and lies from me; give me neither poverty nor riches – feed me with the food allotted to me; lest I be full and deny You, and say, ‘Who is the LORD?’ or lest I be poor and steal, and profane the name of my God.”

Proverbs 30:7,8  NKJV
