Any Minute
“Therefore be ye also ready: for in such an hour as ye think not the Son
of man cometh.” (Matthew 24:44 KJV)
We live as if Jesus is not coming back for us for many years. I think that
sometimes we forget that Jesus could come back for us at any minute. Perhaps we
really don’t believe that He could come back for us at any time. If we really
believed He could come back for us any minute, I don’t think we would say things
and do things that hurt our families and friends.
How sad it would be if Jesus would come back for us today and find us watching a
game on television instead of spreading His unconditional love to those we love
and to those who are lost and on their way to hell. Would we be able to look Him
in the eyes or would we have to hang our heads in shame?
May God forgive us for spending more time watching television than we do telling
others the good news of our risen Saviour. There are so many people who are
hurting, some to the point of suicide, and they desperately need to know that
someone cares.
I challenge each one of us, including myself, to spread His unconditional love
and compassion to our families, our friends, and to everyone we see. Are you
willing to turn off the television and spend that time loving others to Him? We
need to get out of our comfort zones and serve Jesus.
Jesus left His comfort zone in Heaven and all that He had to come to earth on
His mission and die for us. How can we do less than give Him all of our time,
all of our money, all of our talents and everything that we have? It all belongs
to Him any way. Give Jesus your time, your talents and all that you have.
