Introduction
When we come near the end of our life, what will we be thinking about and concerned about?
Some of us may have been with or near other people when they were nearing the end.

Moses’ final recorded speech dealt with the people he was leaving behind and the God who had saved them.
His final gazes were upon the promised land.

the teaching of others,
the salvation of souls, and
blessing of others.

Conclusion
“Were these the final thoughts of Moses, Jesus, and Paul, because they were looking back and wishing that their lives had been focused on these things?”
“Or were these the final thoughts of Moses, Jesus, and Paul, because this is what their lives were about?”
If you want these to be your final thoughts, will they be your final thoughts because that is what your life was about, or will they be your final thoughts because you wish these were the things your life had been about?
