Once, long ago, a prince asked his tutor to prepare him for the life beyond.

“There is plenty of time for that when you are old,” the

tutor replied.

“No!” exclaimed the prince. “I have been to the cem-

etery and measured the graves, and there are many

shorter than I am.”

For the prince was wise, for the Bible says, “what is

your life? It is even a vapor” James (4:14) a vapor appears

for a short time, but then vanishes away–tomorrow may

be too late to take God seriously!

ONE OF LIFE’S MOST DANGEROUS WORDS

A cartoon was once published in three parts. In the

first scene, there was a young man seated at a desk.

At his shoulder stood Jesus Christ, inviting him to be

saved. Politely he told the Lord that he was just launch-

ing his career and had no time for anything else.

The second scene showed the same man, now mid-

dle-aged. He was heavier and well-dressed, and his

larger desk was covered with papers and reports. Again

Christ stood at his elbow. But again the man replied with

the same answer—“No time. Busy. Tomorrow!”

The last picture showed an old and graying man at

his desk. At his shoulder stood, not the Savior, but the

gaunt, bony specter of Death. Speaking in hollow tones,

Death declared, “I have come for you.” The business-

man, with frightened eyes, replied, “Go away, Death! I

did not send for you.” But Death refused to go, and the

man was ushered into eternity without God.

“Tomorrow” is the fitting epitaph for many

tombstones.

“Tomorrow” sounds so innocent, but it can be

life’s most dangerous word.

“Tomorrow” is the barred and bolted door that has

shut many people out of Heaven.

God has never promised us tomorrow. The Bible im-

plores “not to boast about tomorrow” (Proverbs 27:1a).

Those who expect to repent and turn to Christ tomorrow

may die today!

ARE YOU READY?

Be ready! For what? “It is appointed unto men once

to die, but after this the judgment” (Hebrews 9:27). The

best preparation for tomorrow is the right use of today.
