When He Finds Us

Today’s reading: Luke 21:29-38, 22:1-13

“Watch out! Don’t let me find you living in careless ease and drunkenness, and filled with the worries of this life. Don’t let that day catch you unaware.” - Luke 21:34

Alertness seems to be one of the most recurring themes throughout all of the New Testament. Being ready for Jesus’ return at all times keeps us sharp in every way.

When we are ready, we are sharp morally. Every decision we get ready to make is done through this filter: “Is this preparing me to meet my Lord face to face?” The implications of this are massive.

When we are ready, we also will worry less about the uncertainty of this present life. We are assured that all of this is temporary. The possessions. The trials. The temptations. The limitations. The pain. The tears. Even the glory of it all. We are freed from worry and panic. This is because we trust the One whose words “will remain forever”.

Come on the ☁️☁️☁️☁️, Lord Jesus.

We are ready, we are expectant, and we trust completely in your grace and timing.
