Limerick



There once was a man from Galilee,
Who said the end times soon would be.
He told of a sign,
Which would come in due time,
When the Son of Man will be seen.

One practical way to respond to the teaching of Matthew 24:1-30 is to focus on Jesus’ words in verse 36, “But of that day and hour no one knows, not even the angels of heaven, but My Father only.” We should be prepared for the coming of Christ by taking our lives seriously and living them according to God’s will. We should use our time to serve God faithfully and love others unconditionally. We should spend our days growing in wisdom and knowledge, and in doing so we will be ready when Christ returns. We should not worry about when He will come, but instead work diligently to ensure that our hearts are prepared. When we are living according to God’s Word, we can be confident that we are ready and will receive a blessing from Him when He comes.
