for, “Everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved.”
(Romans 10:13 (NIV))

Have you ever tried to make a phone call only to find out that you had run out of minutes? I am sure we have all tried to make a call only to find out that there was not any service where we were calling from. Perhaps you are old enough to have walked into a phone booth to make a call only to find out that you didn’t have any change.

All of these are scenarios that we don’t like!

We all face situations in our lives where we want to reach out to someone, and for some reason, we are thwarted in our efforts. It may be due to lack of money. It may be due to lack of effort, or it may be due to lack of sincerity. We run out of options when we choose to phone a friend.

Think about that for a moment and then think about Jesus!

Jesus will accept our call any time of the day or night. He will never turn us away because we lack the ability to pay. In fact, if we look at this in terms of a phone call, we can call Jesus collect at any time. Jesus has already paid it all. He has already accepted the charges. All that you have to do is call upon His name in repentance and humility and He will answer with grace and mercy.

Have you made the call? It’s collect! Jesus has accepted the charges!
