Commentary by Pastor Michael White:

“For the heavens will vanish away like smoke, the earth will grow old like a garment,

and those who dwell in it will die in like manner…but My salvation will be forever…” (Is 51:6). Have you put God on pause? Have you dedicated your life to something or someone besides Him, with the thought process that you will turn to Him later in life, after your personal goals and objectives are met? There is so much more to our relationship with God than simply turning to Him when we need Him. He wants us to turn to Him now – not because we need to, but because we can. The one thing you can do on earth which you won’t be able to do in heaven is share the Gospel with other people. So start today. Everything around you will fade, but salvation lasts forever.

Prayer:

Father, make me a light in a dark place. Make me someone who unashamedly shares the Gospel everywhere I go! I want to be Your servant with Your agenda, in Jesus’ Name!
