Maybe Today
It is said that the 19th century preacher Charles Spurgeon placed a plaque above his door—of his study or his room, I know not—which simply read, “Maybe Today.” Maybe what today? Maybe Jesus will come back today. It was for him a reminder of the imminent and sure return of his beloved Lord.
We would do well to hang such a placard upon the doors of our hearts. As we go in and out of the matters of this life, shifting our attention betwixt an endless array of topics and concerns, let us remember always our great hope that we will soon see our Lord face to face.
