NOW IS THE TIME

Life has a season for everything, as stated in Ecclesiastes. The wise use of our time is crucial, yet we often forget how fleeting it is. We cannot predict our time on earth or the return of Jesus, which calls for a life lived in faith and preparation. Now is the time to act, invest in good deeds, and include God in our plans. Embrace each moment, acknowledge your Creator, and prioritize spiritual investment for ourselves and our children. Make the most of today to avoid regrets tomorrow.
