Ten More Minutes

“Behold, now is the accepted time; behold now is the day of salvation” (2 Corinthians 2:2).

Prince Napoleon, son of Napoleon III, served with the British army in Africa. One day he left camp with a troop of soldiers on an exploratory mission. Far from camp they stopped to rest and eat. It was a dangerous area and one of the men said uneasily, “We had better turn back, and if we don’t hurry we may be overtaken.”

Prince Napoleon’s reply was, “Just ten more minutes.”

However, before ten minutes were up they were overtaken and overpowered, and the Prince lost his life.

Upon receiving the news of his death, his grief-stricken mother exclaimed, “It was a great weakness from childhood. He never wanted to go to bed on time, or get up when he should, he always wanted ten more minutes.”

Prince Napoleon died because he believed he had ten more minutes. But there are many who are going into a lost eternity because they believe they still have time. We have no promise of any more minutes, but this present onethis fleeting NOW! The Bible says, “Make haste, and come…” (Luke 19:5).
