Matthew 24:37-44

On Spiritual Complacency
People in Noah's day were oblivious until the flood came. Am I similarly asleep, absorbed in life's daily rhythms, while remaining spiritually unprepared? Lord, shake me from my complacency and keep me watchful for your coming.

On Being Truly Ready
Two men will be in the field; one is taken. Does my external Christian activity mask an unprepared heart? Am I living in a state of genuine, moment-by-moment readiness, or am I presuming on God's grace and assuming I'll have more time?

On the Unexpected Moment
Jesus compares his return to a thief in the night. Does this sense of holy urgency inform my choices? Or do I live as if that day is far off, structuring my life around everything but the promise of his sudden appearance?

On Active Watchfulness
‘Therefore, keep watch.' This is a command to active, intentional living. What does ‘keeping watch' actually look like for me today? Is it merely a head knowledge, or is it transforming my priorities, my prayers, and how I love others right now?
