If Only
by Pastor Paul M. Sadler
“For to me, to live is Christ, and to die is gain” (Phil. 1:21).
We fear that many believers today take the things of the Lord far too
lightly. Of course, the concern is that at the end of their life they are
going to look back with regret at what could have been, if
only! When you come to the end of your life are you going to find
yourself uttering those dreadful words? If only, I had lived a
godly life when I was raising my children, perhaps they would have an
interest in spiritual things today. If only, I had heeded the
Lord’s leading and had gone to Bible School, I might have made a
difference on the mission field in those regions beyond. If only,
I had agreed to become a Sunday School teacher, perhaps I could have helped
one of our young people avoid a shipwrecked life.
If only, I had taken the time to study the Scriptures, perhaps
I could have been used of the Lord to win souls to Christ and comfort those
who were crying out for help! If only, I hadn’t been so selfish
and self-serving. If only! As we prepare to stand at the Judgment
Seat of Christ, mark these words, and mark them well: “Only one life,
’twill soon be past; Only what’s done for Christ will last.”
