Don't procrastinate

“Then Jesus told them, ‘You are going to have the light just a little while longer. Walk while you have the light, before darkness overtakes you. The man who walks in the dark does not know where he is going. Put your trust in the light while you have it, so that you may become sons of light.’” John 12:35-36
Many people think that they can accept Christ as their Saviour later in life. ‘I want to live first,’ they say. ‘I want to get out and see the world, then later I’ll become a Christian when I’m ready.’ But this is foolishness to the extreme. What if tomorrow is the last day that you are walking around on this planet? Or, what if the rapture happens and you find yourself in the Tribulation? If you couldn’t live for Jesus in this age of grace, are you going to be able to live for Him in a day of judgement and the most intense persecution the world has ever seen?
The point is, if you haven’t accepted Christ yet, you need to be aware that you will not always have the option. Certainly after death, it is too late. There is also Scriptural evidence that if you keep putting off the Holy Spirit convicting you, and hardening your heart, eventually you will become so hard that it will be impossible to come to salvation. While we are living in this day of God’s grace, we have the light of Christ available to us. We need to put our trust in the light while we have it.
“For He says, ‘In the time of My favour I heard you, and in the day of salvation I helped you.’ I tell you, now is the time of God’s favour, now is the day of salvation” (2 Cor. 6:2).
