Provoking Thoughts for Self Preparation

Matthew 25

Inspired thots

Every Christian MUST prepare for the day of judgment; the TIME IS NOW! 

The parable of the 5 wise and 5 foolish virgins waiting for the bridegroom's coming teaches us to be well prepared in case of delay. Know who you are waiting for and be prepared for all situations; then you would not be caught short.

The parable of the talents speaks of using our God-given talents wisely to earn God's pleasure; to be called "good and faithful servant" who did their best for their Lord instead of reacting out of fear and discontent.

The final parable of the sheep and goats reminds us which category we can fall into if we do not execute the Lord's ministry well as called. How lightly do we take the ministry we are called into? Are we serving the Lord through serving others?
