A Chance To Choose

During a family funeral this week, my aunt shared about her late mum and how she had come to accept Christ just before she passed away.

What persuaded her to say yes to Christ was the fear that she would otherwise not get to see her late husband again, as he had died a Christian.

My aunt thanked God that her parents had "a chance to choose" salvation, and that phrase stayed in my mind.

You and I have a chance to choose too.

This chance is presented to us every single day that we live and breathe.

Do we use it to say yes to Christ and to eternal life with Him, or do we say "no" or "later" and find out too late that we no longer have the chance to choose, because death or disability have robbed us of our abilities?
