Preparation

Romans 13:11 ESV
Besides this you know the time, that the hour has come for you to wake from sleep. For salvation is nearer to us now than when we first believed.

*There are many people who say and believe in the fact that we should live each day like it is our last, but do u truly know what that means? It is referring to not just taking advantage of every opportunity or living life to the fullest, but it is also referencing your ability to prepare for the coming of Christ. Spend time asking yourself how u can get closer to Him, how not to look at a time or work as another opportunity to just do the norm or get a paycheck. What can u do to make a difference in your life and connection with God before He returns to gather those who know and served Him? Better yet, what can u do to create awareness to others on the importance of not just preparing financially, emotionally, or physically for the taking...but spiritually as well? Sometimes people believe there is a conscious effort being made in not taking advantage of preparing yourself for life and connecting with Christ. However, sometimes it is our subconscious ability to be susceptible to habit...We are creatures of habit. We have a habit of waking up and doing the same old routines, yet we wonder why we aren't further in life. We may desire more, but yet we get into the habit of lack of preparation or the lack of seeking God for assistance or approval. Let's get out of our habits, and make haste in realizing that we don't have all the time in the world to get our lives together...Rather, time is winding up...what will u tell God u did or will u express what u didn't do?
