Stop Delaying God’s Call 

By Fr. Sam

A young man dreamed of music. But excuses and delays buried his passion.

We say: “Later, Lord… not now.” But Jesus’ call is never for someday. It’s for today.

Three people told Jesus, “I will follow… but.” Each “but” revealed hesitation. Jesus demands no delays.

Discipleship means no looking back. Like Israel leaving Egypt, eyes forward, heart ready.

St. Augustine once prayed: “Lord, make me holy—but not yet.” Every “not yet” risks becoming “never.”

Jesus calls you now—in family, in work, in weakness. The Kingdom of God is today.
