They all trimmed their lamps and much to their dismay, the lamps of the foolish had run out of oil. The wise virgins refused to share their oil with them because they knew they wouldn't have enough for themselves. While they went to buy oil, the bridegroom came, the wise virgins went in to the marriage and the door was shut. When the other five returned they were turned away. What an opportunity they missed.
Verse 13 of our scripture reading says..."watch therefore, for ye know not the hour wherein the Son of man cometh." This is exactly how it will be when Jesus comes again. Some will be ready to meet him. Others, sad to say will be careless, neglect their soul's salvation and will be shut out. Are you willing to take that chance today? Which category do you fall under? Are you wise or foolish? Think about it.
If you have been foolish and don't know Jesus then I implore you to bow your head right where you are. Say, "Jesus I am a sinner. Please forgive my sins and come into my life. I believe you died to save me and I accept you today as my Saviour.
