Now
Yesterday, while driving across a small Caribbean island, we saw this sign: REDUCE SPEED NOW!
Thankfully, our driver obeyed it. He was familiar enough with the road that he knew there would be a policeman just up ahead ready to fine those who ignored the warning.
We are thankful for warnings and road signs that notify us of danger or a change in traffic pattern up ahead or around the next turn. In fact, folks have been known to sue the highway department or construction company when those signs have not been properly posted.
But what about the road of life? There are many “NOWS” posted by God in His Word, and many warning us about the end of the road. Here are just three examples:
• “Remember NOW thy Creator in the days of thy youth” (Ecclesiastes 12:1).
• “God … NOW commandeth all men every where to repent” (Acts 17:30).
• “Behold, NOW is the accepted time; behold, NOW is the day of salvation” (2 Corinthians 6:2).
Life is fast and, for many of us, we love the “fast lane.” But stop! Consider eternity! And, above all, be saved NOW!
