I sit in the pew near the door of the church. The sin lingers around the room. The preacher preaches of the flames of hell. The question,would I rather burn for eternity with no water hanging from a cliff for dear life begging for a second chance. Or live in peace and lie among the cool crisp oceans. Walking on streets of pure gold. The sin dwells within. Two voices begin to speak. Go on. Walk. No one will be ashamed. Another, The world will be ashamed of you. Stay put wait a few years or so. But what voice is best to listen. The preacher continues to preach. If you walk out these church doors, something can happen. You can go just in a blink of an eye. Can you see your mother,your father, your sister, your brother being separated from you? When Christ comes he'll separate the sheep from the goats,those of which are cleansed and those that are still drowned in sin and never had been washed by the holy spirit. Which one are you? Image seeing your mom,your dad,your sister,your brother. Go up to heaven. And you are left behind. Not even a memory. They will be singing sweet symphonies while you are screaming,begging for just a drop, a chance of redemption. Which would you be? This world is full of sin. Killings and such. What if you went to sleep tonight, a robbery or maybe a murder. Come to end it. Every bit. Would you be prepared? Say, Jesus passes by. Me and you. Everyday every hour. There's a voice inside it's not strong, like a whisper. A small knock. Would you open the door? Likely he passes on. He's passing you by right now. Knocking on every heart's door. Giving *YOU* a chance to be saved. To walk alongside your family, to live a stronger life with someone who died for you. Who gave their all. "Maybe I'm not worth it all." But Lord still loves you. That's why he's only asking you for one little thing. Is to lift your burden. Would you let him? Live a clean life. But if you put him down now. He could say, "I'm done." Answer him when he calls. And if you don't you may not hear him call again. Lord loves you. He loved you enough that he died for you. He's alive now. You can go but you can live again. Come while you have the chance. Before it's too late. The preacher ends off the word with just that as we begin into a song. Should I go? Must I believe in God's trust?After all he has done. Sent his only begotten son who died on the cross and rose on the 3rd day. Lord knows I need it. I ease down the isle and pray to the Lord. He answers......


"For whomsoever may call upon the name of the Lord,shall be saved" will it be you now?Or never? Lord gives you a chance. To be able to stay put and leave yourself in sin or to get the chance to walk through Heaven's Gates.
