Perhaps you mean to be a real Christian someday. But when is this to be? Are you waiting UNTIL YOU ARE SICK? Surely you will not tell me that is a convenient season. Your body is racked with pain; your mind is distracted with all kinds of anxious thoughts, and calm reflection is almost impossible. Is this a convenient time for getting acquainted with God? Certainly not.
Are you waiting UNTIL YOU HAVE LEISURE? And when do you expect to have more time than you have now? Every year you live seems shorter than the last. You find more to do and less power and opportunity to do it. And after all, you do not know whether you may live to see another year. “Boast not thyself of tomorrow”-now is the time.
Are you waiting UNTIL YOU ARE OLD? Surely you have not considered what you say. Will you go to Him when your mind is weak and your memory failing? Will you give up the world when you cannot keep it? Is this your plan? If so, it is an insult to God.
Are you waiting UNTIL YOUR HEART IS PERFECTLY FIT AND READY? That will never be. It will always be weak and sinful-full of evil. You will never make it like a pure white sheet of paper that you can take to Jesus Christ and say, “Here I am, Lord, ready to have Thy law written on my heart.” Do not delay! Begin as you are!
Be honest; confess the truth. You have NO GOOD REASON for waiting. Do not delay any longer. Receive Christ as your Savior today. You may never have another chance.
