Midway through Lent, here’s an invitation to a spiritual check. Are you still keeping Lent or has the press of work crowded out special times of devotion? Are you still using Lent as a time to ponder the almost imponderable, that God really does love you…you, fill in your name. Richard Baxter was a 17 th century Puritan minister whose book, The Saints Everlasting Rest,” is a classic of devotional literature. In one passage Baxter put these words on the lips of a person who missed out on heaven because of wasted spiritual time on earth. “How many weeks and months and years did I lose, which if I had improved, I might now have been happy! Could I find no time to study the work for which I had all my time? No time, among all my labors, to labor for eternity? Could I take time to secure the world and none to try my title to heaven?”The Lenten message of God’s great love for you…remember, fill in your name…is almost unbelievable. Almost. Through Christ-centered devotion the Spirit of God works in you the faith that helps you now and leads to heaven. Don’t be such a busy commuter that your mind speeds pass the cross of Jesus Christ. Continue using Lent to prepare for your eternal Easter! To subscribe or unsubscribe send any email to daleameyer@aol.com Copyright © Dale A Meyer 2010
