Some people wait until the last second. They wait until they land in the hospital. Until they find out they have a life-threatening disease. They wait until they have more time. They wait until their death bed…to say, Yes, to Jesus.
Why? A lot of the time it is because they don’t want to follow all the “rules”. They don’t want to be held accountable, or KNOW that they will be held accountable. They don’t want to take the time to be “good” and follow what the Bible says…all of it.
They are also missing out on all of God’s promises.
They are missing out on years of being blessed in extraordinary ways.
They are missing out on hope.
They are missing out on an eternal family, that starts NOW.
What I learned today…I am so thankful I didn’t wait until the last minute. I had NO idea how amazing it feels to be in my forever family. Even the lows aren’t so low. I have HOPE.
Praying we are overwhelmed with people prepared to take a leap of faith and say YES, JESUS, now. At Easter. All over the world.
This reminds me of how I thought I could wait till I became a Christian: live it up now and buckle down later. I always wanted to be a Christian because I loved God but I held back. Then I got this insight that for a lot of people ‘tomorrow never comes.’ I didn’t want that to be me so I became a Christian. Best decision of my life. My life as a Christian is a party compared to my life before. I admit I thought it was all about rules and good works, but wow, it’s an adventure full of growth, possibilities and so many awesome stories. Thanks for sharing!
