12 Sep Time is Short (1 Cor 7:29-31) by Lisa Skowron
Time is short. For this world in its present form is passing away. ~ 1 Cor 7:29-31
.
Reflection: Paul warns us that time is short. He urges the Corinthians to live their lives in light of this fact, being diligent and decisive about keeping centered on the Gospel and advancing the Kingdom of God, rather than focusing their attention on present circumstances. We are better off focusing on the eternal. Where is your focus right now? Are you being diligent and pro-active in promoting the Pro-Life cause, or are you sitting complacent and disengaged? Maybe it is time to call that local Pregnancy Care Center and volunteer a few hours of your time, to join those praying on the sidewalk for the vulnerable women going into the abortion facilities, or to reach out to hurting women and men by leading a post-abortion Bible study at your church. Time is short. “The world in its present form is passing away.” The Kingdom is drawing near. Let’s get out there and make a difference while we can.
.
Challenge: Pray today for God to reveal anything in your life that might be taking your focus and attention away from doing what God wants you to do for His Kingdom. Don’t waste precious time.
