A pivotal event is defined as a moment in time when two or more factors come together in a person’s life to determine a directional change to follow indefinitely. A person’s life is often measured by the response given to a significant pivotal moment. Ernest Hemingway experienced a pivotal moment as a young man during the first World War when he was severely wounded.
Ernest Hemingway’s personal life did not reflect the presence of Christ Jesus in his life. Consequently, his near-death experience may have contributed to severe depression and his eventual suicide later in life.
A pivotal event can be perceived as either positive or negative. The measure of a person can be determined by how appreciative that person is for each day granted to him or her to do good works.
Taking advantage of every opportunity to live for Christ and promote the Kingdom of God is definitely a worthwhile objective that will secure peace with God.
Be
humble in the presence of God’s mighty power, and he will honor you when the
time comes.
