Hey everyone, welcome to Pastor Rick Warren's Daily Hope.

Now, we're going to continue our series today called Building My Life on Values That Last.

And Rick will press on and show us how we benefit when we apply the biblical principles

of trust, self-control, balance, respect, forgiveness, moral purity, fairness, honesty, and love to our lives.

Okay, let's get right into today's message with Rick sharing the final part of a message called the balanced life.

As a pastor, I have been by a lot of bedsides when people died.

I've seen a lot of people take their last breaths, sometimes in a hospital, sometimes

at a home, sometimes at a scene of an accident.

And in all of the people that I've watched die in my life, I've never heard a single person say

with their dying breath,

boy, Rick, I wish I'd spent

more time at the office.

Not one.

I wish I had made that one more sale.

I have heard a lot of people say things like, I sure wish I'd spent more time with my kids.

I sure wish I'd got to know God better.

I sure wish I'd focused on the things that really matter.

You have to adjust your values.

And then comes the end.

Well, I'll let Kay tell you that.

Very important part of living a balanced life

is learning how to nourish your inner life.
