My grandmother use to say time wait for no one, so do as much as you can today for only a few see tomorrow. Therefore, I must share a story with you all there was a very successful business man he was never at always away on business trips. On his way home for France he sat next to a well dress young man they begin to talk. The young man asked in a polite voice do you go to church. No! Reply the businessman I have no time for such nonsense, my wife and kids go sometime, I am out earning the cash he said playfully. The young man replied in a sad voice so do you believe in God? No! said the businessman I am too busy for God. I have too much work to do no time for this God stuff. Then young man then turn to him and said, I will pray for you that you might fine the time for God; because he is going to help you sooner than you think, the man laughed.
On his way home that night his car went off the road as he fell asleep.
His cars collide with truck, on his way to hospital he begins to pray. God please do not let me die, give me one more chance at life, his prayer was answered. However, he did not walk again.
He began to remember what the young man on the plane said “God is going to help you soon”. Anyway to shorten the story the businessman’s life was changed, he was now in a wheel chair and finding more time for God and his family. Do not wait until you are on your face before you fine time for God.
The businessman did believe in God but had no time for God; remember the first thing he did, was to call on God while he was danger and god answered his prayer. Most of us do believe in God but have no time for God until we are in need. Let’s try to remember God is our creator and we need to fine time for him every day.
DEUTERONOMY CAPTER 8: 17-19 will remind us that it is God who is in control it is he who make us who we are.
17. And thou say in thine heart, My power and the might of mine hand hath gotten me this wealth. 18. But thou shalt remember the LORD thy God: for it is he that giveth thee power to get wealth, that he may establish his covenant which he sware unto thy fathers, as it is this day. 19. And it shall be, if thou do at all forget the LORD thy God, and walk after other gods, and serve them, and worship them, I testify against you this day that ye shall surely perish.
