The harvest is past, the summer is ended, and we are not saved (Jeremiah 8:20),
Opportunities abound – but only for a
while! And, after they’re gone – they’re
gone! That is the lesson that Jeremiah was
trying to impress upon Judah, while in the
dark throes of captivity.
There was a time for change. There was a time
for repentance. There was a time for salvation.
But, that time was now “past” and “ended.”
The dreadful realization of their doom was
now seizing their hearts – “We are not saved!”
If only they had seized those opportunities
while still within reach!
One day, our harvest will have passed. One
day, our summer will have ended. What are
we doing with the opportunities before us
right now?
