BE READY
Luke 12:35-36
“Let your waist be girded and your lamps burning; and you yourselves be like men who wait for their master, when he will return from the wedding, that when he comes and knocks they may open to him immediately.”
Personal Challenge
God does not want any of His children to be lazy. We have been adopted into a family of doers, a family that is asked to stand ready at all times for when our Father calls upon us to act, our waist is girded, our lamps are burning, and we are ready to do whatever He asks. This passage is often interpreted to mean that we must be ready for when He comes on that last day of judgment, but it can also mean that we stand ready to respond whenever He calls upon us to do His work, which means we're listening for His voice and living close enough to Him to be able to hear it. Lord Jesus Christ, Son of God, have mercy on me, the sinner!
