Check your watch

There are many peopel who get distressed about the end of the world. There are constant panics and discussions about it all over the world, but we need not be alarmed. As Christians we are to be ready when he comes but we are also to spread the word of God so others will be ready when he comes. Everyone knows someone who isn't a Christian, and I think it is time to change that. "Go and baptize nations in the name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit." says the Lord. It is our job to spread the word and to make diciples for Christ. My sister has a friend who desperatly needs the Lord but she cannot see that. We all have someone like that and we need to spread the Good News to them.

Just as I said before, there are many things happening in the world today that get people to thinking that the end of the world is nigh upon us. Nay, it is not. Pastors and preachers and religious leaders thing they know when he is coming back but they do not. Only the Father knows for sure. It even says in the bible that the earthquakes and famines are only birth pains for what is to come. We need to be ready for what is to come. We need to be watchful and alert at all times and never fall away. We need to stay soiritually awake. If it feels like nothing is happening, we tend ot fall asleep, but we need to stay awake! For how else will we know when he arrives. We must read our bibles and pray continually to know him and to be awake and ready for when he returns to our lost world.

What must we do to be ready? We must read our bibles and understand the word. We must pray always to our Lord on high! Things get in the way of that though. Worldly things. Parties, and busy lives, and pretty much anything that is a distraction and pulls us away from God, usually, sooner or later, pulls us away from God. That is why he tells us not to get attached to the worldly things. And what are worldly things compared to the glory and splendor of God?!! We must be ready and space us from the things of this world as to be ready when he comes. I am not perfect in this. I spend more time in earthly things than with God but with God's help, I will change this and become ready for His return. AMEN!
