Even so, come, Lord Jesus!

Ever wonder why God never informed us when he was coming back to claim his church?
Just think if you knew exactly when CHRIST was coming again. Would you live like you do now or would you wait until the day of his return, the hour or even the minute?
1 Cor 15:51-52 Behold, I show you a mystery; We shall not all sleep, but we shall all be changed, In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump: for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed.
In the twinkling of an eye wow can you think of anything quicker or faster then that? But we still put off following JESUS thinking we have plenty of time. What would you do if your professor gave you a paper to do with no time limit the only catch is that he could asked for it at anytime he chooses. Would you be ready or just taking a chance that he would not require it for months. I don’t know about you but if that class meant something to me I would do everything possible to be prepared.

James 5:8 Be ye also patient; stablish your hearts: for the coming of the Lord draweth nigh.

Please be patient for he is coming again. Why not live like he could come back today this hour this minute or this very second. What would you change in your life if you knew he was coming back today? Or should I say what would you be doing when he returns. Will you be doing what he asked us to do or will you be caught off guard?
