Be Ready

Matthew 24:32-44

32 "Now learn this lesson from the fig tree: As soon as its twigs get tender and its leaves come out, you know that summer is near. 33 Even so, when you see all these things, you know that it is near, right at the door. 34 I tell you the truth, this generation heaven and earth will pass away, but my words will never pass away.

The Day and Hour Unknown
42 "Therefore keep watch, because you do not know on what day your Lord will come. 43 But understand this: If the owner of the house had known at what time of night the thief was coming, he would have kept watch and would not have let his house be broken into. 44 So you also must be ready, because the Son of Man will come at an hour when you do not expect him.

Bees's Thoughts:

Talking about readiness, I know of people who will work extra hard when they know their bosses are coming or is around. When the 'cat' goes away the 'mice' will come out to play. Hmmn... how many workers can really be ready for their bosses anytime?

As Christians we don't work just to please our bosses on earth, we work to please our heavenly 'Boss' who can see us anytime and anywhere. We are to be good steward in our time and work. We are be ready for His coming...


Dear Lord,
Let me be always ready for You when You come to bring me back home. Let me be a good steward of my time and energy to do the things that will please You. May I find favour in my bosses, being a good worker. I pray that You will continue to direct me in my search for a new job. May Your will be done. Amen.
