Topic : It is Never Too Late to be Saved
In luke 23:42-43 we are told “ And he said unto Jesus , Lord remember me when thou comes into your kingdom. And Jesus said unto him , verily I say onto you , today shall thou be with me in Paradise”
Dysmas was a man condemned to die along with Jesus on the cross. His story is unique because it gives us hope . A hardened criminal whose life had been destroyed by his stealing profession. To the society , he was an unrepentant thief who needed no mercy, But in Jesus , he found salvation even at the point of death .
On that Friday afternoon, Jesus promised him of salvation. The totality of his messed up life was recycled and transformed into a model of grace. His most recent arrest which led to his condemnation brought him to meet Jesus for his salvation.
Dear reader, it is never too late to be saved , you can’t give up . Jesus is still making the promise that He gave to Dysmas that today you will be with him in paradise. The thief gravest mistake that led him to the cross directly helped him to meet Jesus.
At some point in your life when you feel that you want to give up is the inflection point in your life cycle when Jesus is waiting to save you . Have you wandered too far from God that you feel you can’t get back to him? God’s plan for your life begins where you are . Stay blessed
