Always responsive

“I will hasten and not delay to obey your commands.” (Psalm 119:60)

listen to chapter (Read by Max McLean. Provided by Zondervan.)

It is so easy to say: I will wait until I get old, until my children grow up, until I am well-off... We are so busy in our lives, there is so much to do, so many things to see, so many mountains to climb, God will wait, God is patient. Right?

Wrong.

I used to think so, too. And then He saved me, right in the midst of my wordliness and self-satisfaction, in the midst of my self-pride and my huge ego. He did not wait. I asked: why now, Lord? Why me? And I got the answer: because you were appointed.

Can one oppose God's will? Dares anyone do it? Do we REALLY want to do it?
