“Be very careful, then, how you live—not as unwise but as wise, making the most of every opportunity, because the days are evil.” – Ephesians 5:15-16
Time is a precious gift that we often take for granted. The early church lived with an urgency that compelled them to share the gospel at every opportunity. They understood that tomorrow isn’t guaranteed and that people need Jesus today. In our comfortable world, it’s easy to become apathetic and postpone sharing our faith. But the fields are still ripe for harvest, and people still need to hear about Jesus. The time to act is now.
Reflection
What opportunities to share Jesus have you been postponing, and what’s holding you back from acting on them today?
Quote
The early church they shared with everyone, they ran into like the message could not wait because the message could not wait. And I say today the message cannot wait. We can no longer put it off, let’s tell them today.
Prayer
Holy Spirit, remove any apathy from my heart and fill me with Your urgency. Help me to see and act on the opportunities You provide today to share Your love with others. Amen.
