My Answer/ Billy Graham

Comments (0)

DEAR REV. GRAHAM: Please pray for me. The doctor says I need open-heart surgery, and I'm scared I won't make it. I've never been a religious person, but is it too late to turn to God? If I died right now I know I wouldn't go to Heaven. —D.F.

Dear D.F.: Sometimes it takes a serious crisis like this to wake us up and make us realize our need of God — and I believe this is what is happening to you. After all, would you have ever thought seriously about your eternal salvation and your need for Christ otherwise? Probably not.

No, it isn't too late for you to turn to God. In fact, I believe God has spared your life so you'd have another opportunity to turn to Him. I pray you won't ignore this. The Bible says, "He is patient with you, not wanting anyone to perish, but everyone to come to repentance" (2 Peter 3:9). God loves you, and He doesn't want you to die and spend eternity apart from Him.
