How Much Time?

Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit. Matthew 28:19

As life moves on, days roll into months and years.

Before you know it, life has passed you by.

Another day. I have another day, yes?

Maybe, maybe not.

God knows the hour of your departure from this world.

Only God.

Could be in ten years, could be in twenty-five, could be tonight.

Are you ready?

Ready to meet your Maker? The Creator of all things?

We only have one go. One life. One gift.

What about your family? Friends? Co-workers?

How much time do they have left?

Only God knows.

God asks to be His hands and feet while we live.

His witness to others here on earth.

Are you? What if your role is to help open their door?

Or that last invitation to God they finally accept?

Open your hands to help others.

Open your hearts to relationship with others.

Open your mouth to share God’s good news.

Not obnoxiously, but allow your life to be a witness. A witness for God’s love, peace, and salvation.

You might be that one person who will share with the other.

Making all the difference, another soul will enter heaven.

Life is short. We must do our part, sharing God’s hope and peace to our broken and desperate world.

As time ticks away, let your humble soul witness the goodness of God.

There is no time to lose. The time is now.

Get up and go forth into our world, sharing the witness of God.

His goodness, His faithfulness, His love.

What else matters? Nothing.

  1. A wonderful post, Amy! I just posted about “time” myself recently, the Holy Spirit must really be on the move! In the end the only time that will matter is the time we spent with Him. (Of course being his hands, feet, and witnesses are one and the same & count as such. 😉) Hugs & blessings to you for your faithful witness!

    1. Thanks, Dawn! It’s been on my heart recently as my husband’s eldest daughter suddenly passed away a month ago. She was only 34 and healthy! Sometimes life is so serious and it brings me back to the question: what really matters? Only God. Hugs to you, too!! 🙂
