Never Too Late

Signing back-to-school papers makes me tired. I try reading each handout word for word, but my brain tends to skim handouts as I sign my life away. One thing I did notice was the consistent policy with homework.

Turn it in on time: full credit
Turn it in a day late: half credit
Turn it in two or more days late: no credit

I wonder how many people think it’s too late for them. Maybe they feel like they missed their chance for full or partial credit. Their assignment is way overdue, so why bother? Well, it does matter.

It’s never too late to invest in the lives of others. Sure, we may have missed a few homework assignments, but that shouldn’t stop us from getting back up and pressing on. We may not get any credit(from others) here on earth for our kindness or service or love, but we will reap your reward in heaven.

God gives us full credit for our assignments no matter how late we are!

What homework have you pushed aside thinking it’s too late?
