As we work together with him, we urge you also not to accept the grace of God in vain. For he says, “At an acceptable time I have listened to you, and on a day of salvation I have helped you.” See, now is the acceptable time; see, now is the day of salvation! (2 Corinthians 6:1-2, NRSV)
I remember being told many times as a young child, “You won’t learn this any younger.”
I always wondered what my parents meant by this. But now I find myself wanting to say it to my children.
And that is what this verse reminds me of.
Now is the time to accept the grace you have been given and live the life God has set before you.
You will not be able to do it any younger, and the best time to do it is now.
Life will only get better when you give up control and follow Him.
Now is the acceptable time and you can’t do it in the past and why wait for tomorrow?
Now is the time!
