May 24, 2021 - Day 144 (Through the Bible in a year readings for today: I Chron. 11-13 John 9:1-23)
THERE IS STILL TIME
“We must work the works of him who sent me while it is day; night is coming, when no one can work.” (John 9:4 ESV)
Jesus had just healed a man born blind. He explained that the man’s blindness was intended to display God’s works. The Lord then goes on to share some very motivational thoughts for us today.
● Time is running out.
● Night is coming when our work for God will be completed.
● Until then, we have the privilege of living for Him.
How faithful was you witness for Christ yesterday? Did you seek out opportunities to share Him in some way with others? Many of us use a special response to “how are you today?” Answering, “blessed by the Lord,” can open doors to share more about the blessings that are ours in Christ.
“Oh give thanks to the Lord, for he is good,
for his steadfast love endures forever!
Let the redeemed of the Lord say so,
whom he has redeemed from trouble.” (Psalm 107:1-2 ESV)
Thank You, merciful Father, for my Baptism and the precious gift of faith You have bestowed on me. Help me to live the rest of my life for You by sharing You with my loved ones and with all others whom You may send my way. In Jesus’s saving name. Amen.
