“Tomorrow is the devil’s day, but today is God’s. Satan does not care how spiritual your intentions are, or how holy your resolutions, if only they are determined to be done tomorrow.” (JC Ryle)
Ecclesiastes 11:4 says- “He that observeth the wind shall not sow; and he that regardeth the clouds shall not reap.”
Just as the indecisive farmer loses the opportunity to sow and reap by allowing the uncertainties of weather to paralyze him from action, so many people suffer from spiritual paralysis in the present by an unhealthy focus on the uncertainty of the future. As Christians, we must not allow ourselves to fall into the trap of waiting for a ‘convenient season’ to serve Christ. Actually, there is no such thing as a ‘convenient season’ to serve Christ. Yet so many people who intend to serve Christ ‘one day’ keep kicking the can of good intentions down the alley of their life until they wake up one day realizing that they are at death’s door without any life left to live for Christ. If you are going to serve Christ, serve Him today with all your heart!
