At the right time (Third Sunday after Pentecost)

14 June 2026

For while we were still weak, at the right time Christ died for the ungodly. Romans 5:6

Greetings in the name of Jesus!

When things start to go wrong, as they inevitably do on this side of heaven, the right time comes to appreciate that life is not ours to live as we please, but God’s gift to be lived on His terms. Now, this can be disappointing at first because God’s terms have a lot about death in them; only it is death intended to kill the old restless sinner in us and bring about the new man with a right mind. Disappointments are the universal near-death experience that lead us to either despair alone or cling to the gift of the Cross where God transformed death into a stage on life’s way. Thanks to Jesus’ timely cross, death and resurrection, our time is now moving to a fulfilling live, not to a frustrating depletion of life.
