Daylight Savings Time can save us an hour depending on where we’re at. It can make a giant impact on pending choices; good or bad. Many people hate the hour-changing ritual. But what if we could change more than an hour?
In the 70s, Tyrone Davis sang, (If I Could) Turn Back the Hands of Time. Imagine what that would mean to us if it were possible. You might still have a job. You might not have mailed out that letter. Maybe the phone call would not have gone through. She might still be here with you. Someone might still be alive. That email/text might still be there. Or, you might’ve sent that info on time. You may have made the wisest decision ever. Your investment might have gone through making you rich now! Or, glad you didn’t sign on time. So many things may be different if we could turn back the hands of time.
But we can’t! We can reminisce. We can dream. We can fantasize of all the what-ifs in the world. But they won’t help. Facing reality is in order. What’s gone is gone. But, let’s look at another two what-ifs. What if you decide not to guess or wonder what your life-after-death might be like, and instead make a choice now to trust the One who knows and can tell you exactly all the details with your life this very moment?
What if you wait too late for that choice and die before choosing life in Christ and end up (for all eternity) separated from God? There, you’ll spend an eternity kicking yourself because you didn’t choose wisely. You’ll lament not being able to turn the clock back. Daylight Savings Time won’t help you then. Turning back the hands of time won’t buy you any time. Sure, you’ll have plenty of time to think about it…and it goes both ways: Choose Jesus NOW, and in Him, you’ll be able to say over and over, “I’m so glad I chose LIFE in Christ, so glad, so glad! And to think, I almost missed it!” Choose now! Eternity will have no clocks! “Time will be no more” (Revelation 10:6)! No Rolex watches will be up there! Neither Sundials, time machines, or time-telling gadgets of any type! One thing you can trust 1000% is, you’ll never want to go back to your old life-ever once you’re in Christ!
Moving Forward,
God Bless!
