1st. Sunday of Advent

 Being Prepared. Lk. 21:25-36

We prepare for many things from Snowstorms to Christmas to vacations to weddings. 

But who really prepares for the Second Coming of Jesus. 

When was the last time, or even the first time,

You sat down and wondered what you need to do to be prepared for the Second Coming of Jesus?

While we believe that Jesus is going to come back one day,

Many people don’t believe it will be tomorrow. 

So they put off preparing for it. 

We think we are too busy to prepare for it. 

We have things to do today. 

The list is endless. 

I can’t possibly get everything done I need to do today 

Let alone worry about Jesus coming tomorrow. 

But it is at precisely that moment. 

When we are in over our heads and don’t know what to do first 

When this world is throwing everything and the kitchen sink at us. 

That we must stop and think about Jesus coming back. 

and what that Day will be like. 

Because if we do 

Then suddenly our priorities will become clear. 

We will be able to sort throughout all the chaos and things we have to do 

And see what is really important. 

If you believe that Jesus is coming tomorrow 

It will change everything you do today. 

If you prepare for the coming of Jesus Tomorrow 

You will also be prepared for whatever the world throws at you Today!
