God was pleased with Hezekiah’s life story enough to extend his life fifteen years. Hmm!
We’ve all seen movies or shows that we vowed we would never see again. Whether it was bad acting, a bad plot, gratuitous violence or language etc., or just plain silliness it somehow left a bad taste or memory with us that we don’t want to revisit. It would be a complete waste of time. Though this is on the big screen it should evoke some thought as to how we live our daily lives before God. The truth of the matter is we will all one day have to give an account of what we’ve done, and nothing in all creation is hidden or can be hidden from Him. The idea of having to stand there and watch our lives flash before our eyes in God’s presence should be a wake-up call. And yes, His grace goes a long way to cover a multitude of sins, but He did say something about us personally paying for willful sin. Let today be a day of repentance and a new beginning.
Until tomorrow…

“…So then, each of us will give an account of himself to God.” – Romans 14:12
