"Last Day" Events!?! + PRAYER: I Am Yours, Lord!

The Question Was Asked:

What If Today

Was

The Last Day Of Your Life!?!

I Paused ... For Effect
And
I Thought ... Briefly
And
I Shouted ... In My Head:

Whenever Is The Last Day Of My Life

It Will Always Be A Today!

The Rest Of The Question Asked Was:

How Would You Be Prepared

To Spend  ... Eternity!?!

I Thought ... Long And Hard
And
I Am Thinking ... Still!

I Looked Within Me
And
I Looked Up ... To Him!

I Looked At Him ... My Jesus
And
Then I Saw Sin
The Filthiness Of Sin
The Sinner ... Me
Saved ... By His Sacrifice
His Grace ... Pledged 
To Be Sufficient ... For Me
And
In The Belief Of Saving Faith
Knowing That I Had Confessed My Known Sin
And
Was Willingly Walking With Him
In Accord
Hopeful ... Waiting
Watching ... Working
Praising ... Pleading
Worshipping ... Trusting
Following ... Obediently
Living For Him
And
Knowing, Knowing, Knowing
That I Can Be And Can Do Better
And
More ... For Him
I Prayed:

Father,

I Need You, Now, Here, Today!

In The Name Of Jesus, Fix Me

Lest I, Impatient, Stray!

I Could Ask For More Faith

But

That Leads To More Waiting

More Learning

More Need For The Enduring Spirit

And

I Decide, Lord

That I Am Yours!

In Whatever Way You Decide

I Will Follow You

For

I Must Get Home:

I Know That I Do Not Endure The Crucible Alone!

I Know That I Am Loved!

I Know That I Have Your Sure And Certain Care!

Help Me, Lord

When The Day Of Settlement Comes

To Be Ready

Slate ... Zeroed

Eye ... Cleaned

Ears ... Sharpened

Clothes ... White

Spirit ... Buoyed

Hands ... Outstretched

Heart ... Glad

Hope ... High

Faith ... Fixed

Doubts ... Dispelled

Courage ... Strong

Headed ... Home!

Help Me To Confess

And

Repent Of Known Sin

Every Single Day!

Help Me To Walk Humbly With You:

There Is, For Me, No Other Way!

Help Me To Tell Another The Good News Gospel!

Help Me To Stand Up For My Jesus

Who Laid Down His Life For Mine!

I Must Get Home!

Self-Talk And Introspection ...

I Considered My Gift Of Daily Faith
And
Daily Grace
And
I Know Of A Surety That I Am Inordinately Blessed!
I Am Going Home!
Even Now, I Am At Home ... In Jesus!

I Shall Be Spending Eternity With My Lord!
I Shall Enjoy His Eternal Life!
By The Holy Spirit's Leading
Guiding And Chiding
I Know There Will Be No Separation
Between My Lord And I!
I Am Going To Receive The Great Reward!

I Think, Again, Of How I Am Prepared
Preparing
To Spend Eternity!
I Am Preparing For The Eternity Of Peace
Because
I Have And Am Making Peace
With My King ... The Judge Of All Flesh!
He Is Preparing A Place ... In His Father's House
Just For Me!

Christos Came A-Calling!

He Had Lived A Life Of
Totally Glorious Luxury
AND
Barring One Unfortunate 
Unnecessary Incident
He Had Been
Faithfully Loved 
AND
Lovingly Worshipped
By Every Single Being
He Could In His Eye Behold!

Life Is Good!
Good - That Is
Until The Day
That It Was Decided
That He Would Have To Go 
AND
Make Peace
In One Of The Family's Houses!

Ruction Had Broken Out!
People Were Fighting!
People Were Dying!
People Were Calling Themselves God
AND
There Was Open Opposition
To None Less Than 
Almighty God Himself
In The Family's Favorite House Of All Places
Just Because Of Somebody
Thoroughly Conceited
Selfish
Wilfull
Cruel
Liard
AND
Unrepentantly Wicked!

The Former Top Servant To The Master
In The Great House Itself
Had Decided That
If He Could Not Be Boss
In The Great House
He Was Going To Destroy
One Of The Family's Households
... Just For Spite!

Anyway ...

Long Story Short
That Knave
Had Been In Love With His Own Formerly Gorgeous Self
AND
Desiring Others To Worship Him
As He Worshipped Himself
Had Brought That Peculiar Estate
- A Favorite Of The Father -
To Ruin
AND
That Is Why
Christos Had Had To Make 
The Arduous Journey!

The Experience Is Novel
For
When He Said Who He Is
Just About Everybody
Thought Him A Liar
A Blasphemer
AND
An Employee Of Beelzebub
The Very Wretch
Christos Had Come
To Save The Estate From!

It Was A Total Farce!

NOW ...

Everybody Knows That Story
But
I Personally Wonder 
How Christos Felt
Not Feeling Anything
From The Majority Of His Family
BUT
Hate!

I Know That He Could Commune With His Father
But
I Want To Know
To Understand This :

How Does One
Who Has Only Known Love
Exist
- In His Own Property -
Amongst A People Out Of Himself
Who Are Protected And Provided For
By Himself
AND
Who Despise His Very Existence
Survive?

How Did Love Live Without Love

Amongst The Unlovely

But Beloved

Unkind And Cruel Family

And

Survive

Unbesmirched

By

That Pervasive Taint Of Sin

Mingled With Ravaging Hate?!

Not Every Single Person Hated Him For There Was A Remnant Who Knew A Godsend
When They Heard One!

BUT ... 

The $1,000,000,000,000 Question Remains:

How Do WE Personally Stand Up 

For Jesus 

In The Face Of Rabid Familial Hate

Disrespect AND Dishonor 

When Every Body Knows That 

We Need Love To Survive? 

The Answer Is Important For Every Christian's Survival In These Last Days!

Mother Against Child

Enemies Within Your Home

Self Before Jesus Is Not Worthy Of Jesus

Anything Given Up For Jesus Christ

Is Returned 

Tenfold!

Jesus Christ Is Faithful

His Own Will He Secure

All We Need Is Endurance In Him

AND

We Shall His Face In Peace

Behold!

The Holy Spirit Offers Comfort

The Holy Angels Provide Protection Each Day

We Need To Remember To Follow The Captain

AND

Strive By His Word

To Walk Firmly

On His Marked Pathway!

The Devil Is Not Going To Ease You

The Devil Will Pour Out Virus-Mimicking Hate

We Must Keep Our Eyes On Our Savior

Else

We Will Share In The Devil's Just Fate!

Let Us Keep Our Eyes Upon Jesus

Let Us Walk Boldly Unto The Christ

Let Us Sing For Joy

For The Revealing

Will

Turn The Dark Days

Into Glorious Light!

Jesus Is The Way

The Truth

AND

The Light

Let Us

Through Him

By Him

For Him

In Him

Be Faithful

For There Is Always The Darkness

Before There Is The Light!

*********

Jesus Christ

IS

The Light Of The World!
