Daily Devotional For Today 11 August 2022: Inspirational Message and Prayer
Read Daily Devotional For Today 11 August 2022
Topic: Be Prepared
Scripture: Luke 12:35-37
What will we be doing when the Master comes? Will we be faithful servants waiting for our Lord’s return, or will we be waiting until we’re older or sick, or dying? The parable goes on to tell how much more so, if he comes in the second or third watch. As the year winds down we will continue to be reminded to be prepared to meet God.
There is a song that was popular several years ago called “Live Like We’re Dying.” Although not specifically geared toward being prepared to die, it does invite us to live each moment of every day loving others, letting those we love know it and not wasting a single second.
In fact the song tells us exactly how many seconds there are in a day – 36,400! If we knew we were dying, who would we want to spend time with or who do we need to forgive? Who needs to know that we love them? If you had answers for these questions, then what are you waiting for?
What do we need to do to prepare for eternity? How is our prayer life? Do we need to put a little more time into reading the Bible? Are we as kind to our friends and family as we could be? Each day is a day to witness God’s love to others; each day is a day to grow in our faith; each day is important and one in which we need to be prepared to meet our Lord.
Prayer For Today
Dear God, we don’t know the day or the hour, all we can do is be the best Christian we can be each day of our lives. We depend on you to help us and we thank you for being there beside us. Amen.
