“Remember now your Creator in the days of your youth” (Ecclesiastes 12:1, NKJV). Now is the operative word. This isn’t advice to eventually get around to God once life settles down. It’s urgency, aimed specifically at youth.
There’s wisdom in that timing. Habits and priorities formed early tend to shape the whole of a life, for better or worse, more than we often expect.
This isn’t only advice for the young, though. It’s a reminder that remembering our Creator is never something to indefinitely postpone, regardless of your current age.
Whatever season of life you’re in, what would it look like to remember your Creator now, rather than pushing that remembrance further down the road?
