At Such a Time as This

    As the years roll by, I become more accutely aware of how little time there is to serve our Lord in this life.  Shortly, that time will be past, for you as well as me.  Will we have spent ourselves for the Savior or spent ourselves on what must certainly perish?  Will we hae to lived that those around us know the gospel?  Will we have been faithful to the worship of God's church so that our children and grandchildren will have such a place to attend when we are gone?  Or at our departure, will this place be nothing more than an empty shell of religion?  We cannot know what God will do in time to come.  But if the day comes when our church no longer exists, may it not be because we were silent and inactive "at such a time as this." - Joe Terrell
