Still Undecided

Many of you probably could care less about the fact that Brett Favre, the Green Bay Packers quarterback and three-time MVP, is still undecided about his retirement. But here in Green Bay, and throughout Wisconsin, it's a big deal. The press and Packer fans are getting impatient.
I think all of heaven is impatient, too. Not for Brett Favre's decision, but for the decision of some of our loved ones, our co-workers, our neighbors, and, yes, some of us. Too many these days are still undecided. They are not sure that they really want to choose Christ as their Saviour and their Lord. Jesus confronted people directly about the choice to become His follower.
We can join the throng this Sunday at worship and blend in with everyone, but there comes a time when we face a personal and private decision about the One who died for our sins and rose again on Easter.
Yes, the bottom line is that our relationship with the Lord comes down to a very intimate and individual choice. Christianity is not a social club or a decision to follow the masses. It is rather a very personal and individual relationship with Jesus Christ. Have you made that choice? Or are you still undecided?
- Rev. David T. Wilkinson
