---What If that Had Been You?

--It is appointed unto men once to die but after this the judgment;
So Christ was once offered to bear the sins of many.
--[Hebrews 9:27-28] --

--A fifteen-year-old boy was in a vehicle with several other teenaged boys who were going out for an evening meal. They were traveling on a gravel road and lost control at a corner. The side of the car where this young man was sitting struck a tree, and he suffered severe head injuries. They took the unconscious lad to the hospital where he was put on life support. After a few days of no improvement, his family finally agreed to have the life support removed. He took only a few more breaths, and then he was gone.

Yes, that was someone else., but what if that had been me? How would it be with my soul? When God takes a young soul out of this life, it sends a sobering message for all young people and older ones as well. Are we ready to meet God at any moment? If not, today is another day to accept God's mercy.

If God is calling you, please don't put off yielding your life to Him Tomorrow might be too late. We may think that we have many years left, but we don't know. Why not repent now? The Old Testament prophet Amos said, "Prepare to meet thy God." Repent, and confess all your sins to Jesus Christ. Have faith in His shed blood for your cleansing. Purpose in your heart to live for God. Read the Bible and use it for your guide. Find a Bible-believing church and be ready when God calls you home to glory. ~~
