One day Jesus is going to come back and take all of His followers to His kingdom. Here is the thing though, no one except God the Father knows when that will happen. In Matthew 25 the author tells us that the day Jesus comes back will be like Noah and the flood. No one except God knew when the flood was coming and all the people kept living like God did not exist. The people threw huge parties and celebrations but they paid no attention to God. It will be the same way when Jesus comes back. The people that don’t follow Jesus will be living their lives just like they would on any other day.
What does that mean for me and you? Even though we follow Jesus, we don’t know when He is going to come back. That means we want to live every day knowing He could come back at any moment. We want to love and live like Jesus. We want people to know, love, and follow Jesus. Who is someone who doesn’t know or love or follow Jesus who you can invite to church with you?
Prayer: God, thank You for today. Every day You give us is a gift. God, help me to tell the world about how great You are and how much You love them. Amen.
