Being ready
Therefore, be continually on the alert- for you do not know when the master of the house is coming, whether in the evening, or at midnight, or when the rooster crows, or in the morning- [stay alert,] incase he should come suddenly and unexpectedly and find you asleep and unprepared. Mark 13:35,36
As a big day in the calendar approaches, you can easily prepare for the event, except what if you don’t know when an event will be? The scripture encourages us to be alert and prepared at all times, that Jesus could be back anytime. If everyday we can celebrate Jesus, like Christmas everyday, we will live enriched and fulfilled lives, all in readiness of Jesus’ return. God meets our expectancy and faith. How can you make your life ready for your King Jesus?
Lord Jesus, thanks for the blessing of knowing you and the privilege of preparing my life. Help me ever be ready and alert, amen.
