No Time Like the Present


As God's fellow workers, we urge you not to receive God's grace in vain. For He says, "In the time of My favor, I heard you, and in the day of salvation, I helped you." I tell you, now is the time of God's favor, now is the day of salvation.

II Corinthians 6:1-2

How could the Corinthian believers toss aside God's message ("receive God's grace in vain")? Perhaps they were doubting Paul and his words, confused by the false teachers who taught a different message. The people heard God's message, but did not let it affect what they said and did. How often does God's message reach you in vain? God offers salvation to all people. Many people put off a decision for Christ, thinking that there will be a better time - but they could easily miss the opportunity altogether. There is no time like the present to receive God's forgiveness. Do not let anything hold you back from coming to Christ and getting your life right with him. He is the author and perfector of our faith. He is our Creator. Honestly, you can say and believe anything you want. But nothing you believe changes the Truth about who you are and who God is. You have been made for a purpose. God has a better plan for you than you have for yourself. All you have to do is acknowledge Him and believe.

God Bless you,

J.H.
