Could you be the one for whom God still waits?

The uncertainty
of it all
near
nearer than desired
yet
farther than hoped

Coming
All of us
to face it
No escaping.

For some,
a gentle and peaceful
release
For others,
a struggle of emotions
churning within

A looking forward
to eternity
with
our loved ones
and
Jesus,
our Savior

or
a grim matter-of-factness
there is nothing more
Life is ending
It is over
There are no more chapters,
no more
chances ...

or is there?

Could you
be the one
for whom God
still waits ...
to usher you
into His presence
to embrace you
to love you
forever and ever?

Another chance ...
perhaps.
Another chapter
waiting to unfold

Yes.
Life is ending.

So,
why wait!?

Seek Him
while He is near.

"Seek the Lord while you can find him. Call on him now while he is near. Let the people turn from their wicked deeds. Let them banish from their minds the very thought of doing wrong! Let them turn to the Lord that he may have mercy on them. Yes, turn to our God, for he will abundantly pardon." (Isaiah 55:6-7, New Living Translation)
