The consequences of just living life
Thoughts on the message
Just living life.
Jesus says that is what most people will be doing when He comes back. They will not be ready. The consequences are that these people will face Jesus – with nothing. They have spent their time living life for themselves and made no preparation for Jesus coming as King. This time, the King will not just clean His house, He will clean out His kingdom – all who do not want Him as King will be removed.
When will it happen? Only God knows. So be ready every day.
Prayer
Father, it is so easy to just be busy living life. Life is a challenge with all the problems that it throws at me – it can take absolutely all of my time and energy. If I am not careful, it stops me from having preparation time for eternity. Help me today to take time – praying, reading Your Word and building for eternity. Help me to love people like You love them. Help me to encourage the weary. Help me to make my life all about You rather than all about me. Give me joy today in doing these things. In Jesus’ name, Amen.
