Are we quietly preparing ourselves for those things that the Lord will have us do for His kingdom? How about for the return of His Son Jesus? Do we find that we are so busy doing day-to-day worldly tasks that we forget to plan and prepare ourselves for the Lord’s ultimate return? If we look at our daily lives do we find that we are treating this world as if it were the next… as if it is our ultimate destination? Sometimes we forget that this is only a shipyard in which we are being fitted, faired, and prepared to sail and not the open sea that we are meant to hoist sail upon once we are completed in Christ.
