He is Coming!

Let me start off by saying congratulations you did it!  If you have been with us since last January and have been faithful to read God's word each day you have completed the 1-92 challenge.  1 year and 92 hours later you have finished. GREAT JOB!  What next?  Well I am starting back at Genesis 1 tomorrow and would encourage you to do the same.  Later this month I will be announcing a new challenge that has to do with God's word, but until then go back and start again at the beginning of the Old Testament or New Testament.  The main thing is that you stay in the word!
I love how the Bible ends, "Yes I am coming soon." Jesus says.  And the writers response is AMEN, Come, Lord Jesus.  It is true Christ is going to return very soon the question is are we as ready as John was?  If Jesus spoke these words directly to you what would your response be?  "Wait, I still have more to do", or "can I have another day or two?", or "no, no, no I'm not ready yet"?  Could you say with full confidence AMEN come Lord Jesus?
If you can't say that I would challenge you to examine how you are living your life as a new year approaches.  If you need more time to tell others about Christ, do it now, Christ is coming.  If you want to spend more time with your family or kids, do it now, He is coming.  Whatever it is that would keep you from saying come Lord Jesus come, should be done this very day if possible because He is coming soon.
I don't expect that any of us will get it all done, but we should live each and everyday as if it were our last.  So we can say with confidence come Lord Jesus!

HAPPY NEW YEAR MAY YOU BE BLESSED IN 2010!!!
