“You also must be ready all the time, for the Son of Man will come when least expected.”Luke 12:40 NLT
Have you ever had a surprise visit from someone? Were you prepared? Was your house in order, fresh biscuits made, and time to give them?
Jesus will not require biscuits, but is looking for souls ready for Him. How can I be ready? I can be in close union with Him, living as He advised in John 15, abiding in the vine.
Is there activities you need to delete? Activities you need to include? Have you failed to obey Him in some area of your life? Time to repent and obey!
Jesus told several parables about being ready. One was about ten virgins invited to a wedding feast. The grooms was slow in coming and they all fell asleep. When the announcement came that the groom is here, five were ready, five were not. Five has brought along spare oil for their lamps. The five unprepared raced off to buy oil and returned too late.
Are you ready?
