This morning I read Luke 20 and 21.
I was still pretty sleepy, wrapped in a blanket on the couch. I hesitate to admit this publicly but it was a pink blanket (belonging to Carly). This specific blanket was selected this morning not for it color but for its satisfying warmth.
As I was reading Luke 21 and rubbing the sleep out of my eyes, this verse really woke me up.
But keep on the alert at all times, praying in order that you may have strength to escape all these things that are about to take place, and to stand before the Son of Man.
I want to be awake when He comes.
I want Him to find me waiting on Him, looking out for Him, and prepared to stand before Him.
