Numbered Days

Mothers lose babies by miscarriage; others are still-born. Some babies live seconds, minutes, hours; others days and years—God alone knows our lifespan. What we do with our time here is crucial and limited. Our heavenly Father is merciful and gracious, giving everyone who understands right from wrong the time and opportunity to confess and repent of their sins, yield their hearts to His authority, and follow the Holy Spirit’s guidance. His time measurement is unique: “But beloved, be not ignorant of this one thing that one day is with the Lord as a thousand years and a thousand years as one day” (2 Peter 3:8). One day we will stand before God and give an account of our time (Revelation 20:12); one day, soon, Jesus will return: “Watch therefore, for ye know not what hour your Lord doth come. . . Therefore be ye also ready for in such an hour as ye think not the Son of man cometh” (Matthew 24:42, 44). Our time on earth will end, and we will face Holy God. Are you and your loved ones ready?
