Be Ready

One day I was doing my laundry in our building's laundryroom. A man came in to do his laundry also, and started making "small talk" with me about the New Year...

Then he said, "What do you think about all the things that are going on in the world today?" I told him I thought it was awful. He replied, "You know, I'm not a religious person, but I'm wondering what's going on?" So I told him how the Bible talks about all these things taking place in the last days...I told him to read Matthew 24, and that in the Book of Daniel it speaks of knowledge increasing in the last days. He said he had his Bible on his livingroom floor at that moment, opened to the Book of Revelation.

I told him that all we can do is "Be Ready" by accepting Jesus as our Lord & Savior. That we must be Born Again. He said that he thought that he had done that years ago, but has not been living the Christian life. He shook hands with me, and told me his name and left. I hurried back to my apartment, and brought back a Christian book, and laid it on his dryer with a note to keep it. When I returned, he had taken the book...Praise the Lord!

People are scared. They know that something unusual is going on, and they are searching for answers. Tell them that the answer they are searching for is…JESUS. You could be the only person who will ever tell them about Him.

We must "Be Ready"...because at any moment Jesus may come in the clouds of Glory to take us home…leaving so many behind to face the evils to come.

BE READY
