Wake Up!

Everyone enjoys and benefits from a good night’s sleep. But too much sleep often points to a problem. That’s certainly true for the Church.

In this week’s text the Apostle Paul commands the Church in every age and in every place to wake up from their slumber and get on mission.

People use darkness to cover all manner of evil deeds, but we are called to be children of light walking in the day, doing works of righteousness in Jesus’s name. Therefore, this is a call to repentance and action.

It’s urgent and necessary because we’re all on the clock and both time and opportunities are slipping away. Indeed, salvation is nearer to us now than when we first believed.
