Running down the Clock late in the game.

My Belief

When it is late in the game and one team is wining, the same thing is always on there mind...WASTE TIME. They have enough points to win and all they need to do is run out the clock before the other team can catch up. THIS IS HAPPENING TO US AS CHRISTIANS. Satan knows that if he can fill our minds with our own lives then we will be too busy to worry about anyone else. As Christian Americans we never have enough time. "There are not enough hours in the day". "I would, if I had more time." We are so busy building up our treasures on earth that we don't have time for anyone. Satan has created a politically correct world where we don't talk about "religion" or "politics" and now he is running down the clock. We are all worried about our career, our house, our car, and our bank account. What about our coworker, our neighbor, and all the strangers we meet everyday? They don't have the safety net of Jesus in place! They are behind and if they don't score soon there game will be over. If they don't hear about Jesus from you, and have time for the Holy Spirit to work on there heart, they are going to ROAST and I believe you will have to WATCH IT!

Scripture

Matt 16:15
He said to them, "Go into all the world and preach the good news to all creation.

Matt 6:20
But store up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where moth and rust do not destroy, and where thieves do not break in and steal.

1Peter 3:15
But in your hearts set apart Christ as Lord. Always be prepared to give an answer to everyone who asks you to give the reason for the hope that you have. But do this with gentleness and respect,

Application for Life

Open your heart. Stop wasting time and letting Satan win. Build up treasure in heaven. Love the people around you enough to say something. You don't have to debate them! You don't have to convince them! You just have to tell them. Just let them know what you believe. Let them know why you have hope of a real future. Love them enough to give them the opportunity for that same hope.
