As much of the audience sang this second hymn I felt a little ashamed that I was so ignorant of something that, apparently, many others knew. I love to sing hymns and fancy myself a student of them. Someday , I will know all the words. Someday I will join in a larger heavenly chorus that lifts up thankful praise to God. It is a wonderful thought.
Christians are someday people.
It is easy to be Someday Christians and it is good and appropriate to reflect upon, and gain encouragement by dwelling on eternal realities. In many ways, Someday should be today . Let us not err on the side of looking so expectantly for heaven and becoming so preoccupied with Someday that we become oblivious to the realities that are all around us. Let us all become today Christians also. Encourage one another day after day, as long as it is called Today , lest any one of you be hardened by the deceitfulness of sin.
