“The
Gentiles shall come to thy light, and kings to the brightness of thy rising.”
Isaiah 60:3
I remember a common line from old
police TV shows. “Calling all cars! Calling all cars!” It was an urgent plea.
There is a critical situation and all cars that can make it should respond. God
has an urgent plea as well. Jesus said, “Come unto me.” God says, “Now is the
day of salvation.” There is the need that all mankind has but with only one lifetime in which
to meet it. It is the need of our eternal soul and it is the need of all
mankind.
God didn’t just call all of Israel
to come. This passage in Isaiah shows the call is universal. God says, “Calling
all people! Calling all people!” Come to the light. Come to Jesus, the Light of
the world. Come to the brightness of His glory for Jesus is the glory of God
sent into this world. God calls out, “Calling all people,” and we should not
ignore the call nor put off responding.
Dear Father, Thank You for the
loving grace that calls all men to come to You. Amen
Until Monday, my friends, may the good God envelop
you with His grace; may you prove the common confession of faith, “I believe in
the holy Christian church and in the fellowship of the saints”, and may you be
enriched with joy and hope as you exercise that confession this weekend. Amen
