One day closer

Was struck by this verse as I was reading my Bible this morning, "The hour has come for you to wake up from your slumber, because our salvation is nearer now than when we first believed" (Romans 13 v 11b).

Today I am one day closer to meeting the Lord Jesus and spending eternity with him in heaven.

Today I have one day less to share with people, who are facing an eternity in hell, the good news that God has sent his son the Lord Jesus to take the punishment for sin so that people can be forgiven by God, live a new life here on earth and then live with him forever.

A wonderful hope and a challenge on this Monday morning.
