Come To Me
“Ye will not come to Me, that ye might have life”
(John 5:40).
Although these words were spoken long ago by the Lord Jesus to those who refused His person and testimony while here on earth, yet I am afraid that they also apply to many today. Many who have been taught about the Lord Jesus by parents, grandparents and other loved ones have sadly refused to come to the Lord in repentance and faith.
I hope there is no reader of this calendar in that category. If there is, consider seriously the end result of such a refusal. The Lord warns that there is a day coming when “Ye shall seek Me, and shall not find Me: and where I am, thither ye cannot come” (John 7:34). If you do not come while the invitation is being offered, there is a time when you will want to come and it will be too late.
At this moment, He is saying, “Come unto Me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest” (Matthew 11:28). Don’t wait until He has to say, “Depart from Me, ye cursed, into everlasting fire, prepared for the devil and his angels” (Matthew 25:41).
