"All Expenses Paid Vacation"

..."Therefore you also be ready, for the Son of Man is coming at an hour you do not expect." Luke 12:40

Time. Time is a concept that we all understand. It takes time to accomplish a task. We need to be someplace at a certain time, we don't have enough time before something is due to happen, and so on. Game shows are big on TV these days and they all have something in common. A big clock ticking away. They almost all have timers that determine whether people win the big prize or they lose it. If they complete the task, answer the question, or run the course before the time runs out then they win the desired prize. Often times it is an all expenses paid vacation that they are thrilled about and they are willing to do whatever task the game requires to win it.

Time. We as human beings tend to take time for granted. We assume that the next minute, hour, day, week, month, year will always come. We assume we will have tomorrow to get ready and do the things we desire to do for Him. The truth is we don't know what day and hour He will come. The truth is there will come a time when it is too late choose the right answer.

We too, like all the game show contestants have the opportunity to receive an all expense paid vacation in the ultimate location. We don't have to answer some bizarre question, perform some bizarre task, or run on some bizarre course. All we have to do is say, "Yes!" to the Savior who paid the expenses for our ultimate paid vacation. There is only one stipulation. It needs to happen before time runs out!!!
