ONE LAST TIME

CAN BE VERY DANGEROUS!!!!

I have heard people around me say this word a lot of times, i will do this one last time and will never do it again; if i have been lying all this time and never been caught, then i can do it one more time and get away with it, i put it to you today that one last time can be very very dangerous.
I was once told the story of a couple that both worked in the same organization, the husband worked in the kitchen department and the wife worked in the house keeping department or vice versa, i might have got their roles mixed up...(lol). So because of the fact that they had this position, they never had reason to do grocery because they shop from work; the partner that worked in the kitchen department would shop for food items and take them home, the one in the house keeping department would take cleaning stuff home, and they lived this way for about 25 years. After the husband retired and his aspect of grocery shopping from work stopped, the wife still had a year before she retired so she still had opportunity to shop grocery from work; apparently, maybe someone had mentioned something about their behavior to the wrong person at work, about three days to the wife's due date of retirement, as she was on her way home, she was stopped at the gate and there was a request to search her car, in her car, the stuff she had taken from work was found in the trunk of her car, she was interrogated and on the spot, she was fired!!! Just 3 days to retirement.

I know many people reading this would say that the organization is very wicked because i had said the same thing when i heard the story but the truth is, she and her husband have been robbing the organization for about thirty, that is not fair to the organization either, thank God that they did not even ask them to pay for all the years that they have been robbing the company and she was just fired, not arrested or sued. The moral behind this story is that, we should never think that we are being too smart by adding extra $100 to the amount of the text book we are required to buy from school or changing the digits of money for office equipment so we can get to keep the change, if people on earth cannot see our dubious behaviors, what about God in heaven, can He not see us too; the beauty about God is that He gives us a lot of opportunities to amend our ways and stop the wrong how do you know when your last chance will be. I will do this one last time and never repeat it again is a very dangerous move because many things can happen and many things can go wrong at one's last time at doing something wrong. Fact is it is better not to try it all, than to try it and risk the consequences, we all have a choice to make.

What if the trumpet were to sound at your last trial, what if you get caught, what if things turn out the way you do not expect; why don't you determine to stop it right now and not try it again, remember, we have a loving father that is faithful and just to forgive us and give us a new life. Let us all desire to make this world a better place for next person beside us, One Last Time can be the VERY LAST time that grace would work for you, it is very dangerous.

An enthusiastically emotional realist. I believe that life is not all about YES or NO but a few Mybes and In-decisions but your ability to figure it out makes you stand out. A lover of God and His ways and I believe that a Hopeless romantic is not bad because we view life in a romantic angle.
