Default My Parents used to go on long trips.

My parents used to go on long trips, while we stayed home (do you hear what I hear?) PARTY TIME!!!! LOL.

Well, we were not that crazy, we never threw one party while they were gone, we were too afraid that they might come back unexpectedly. Although my brother did try to bring girls over (always one) and friends, which they said not to.

But I was remembering how things were. They would tell us to clean up the house while they were gone. Now sometimes we didn't know when they would come back, but we would slack off the whole time they were gone. And when we heard that garage door come up, we would remember that we forgot to clean the house, and jump up and start doing it. We did this many times, and once we did not have it done. UH OH. So there was a certain terror we had when they would call and say, ''We are on our way home.'' And we thought, ''we have to clean up this house.'' If we did not have that room clean, we were in much trouble.

Jesus Christ went on a long trip, and he is coming back, and his house better be clean when he comes, no excuses, because we have been allotted enough time. Even then the Lord has sent his messengers to tell people to repent, but they have not, and have mocked his servants. Even before Jesus came to this earth, he had sent his prophets to speak of his coming. And today the Lord still has his servants speaking of his coming, but many will not hear it, and ignore it, while they continue on with their parties and revelries.

The Lord is coming, but that day will sneak up on the man who presumes he has enough time. It will come on him like a thief. The Lord said, I have set before you a choice, Life, and Death, CHOOSE LIFE!!

May Jesus bless you.

True Fact....

We should be ready always, and be prepared for that it can happen anytime. So many Christians are saying that it is still a looong time before Jesus will come back again. I beleive especially many that already have got children thinks this way, since they want to see their children grow up, etc... Or those who I have heard saying this do have their own families. But now; If Jesus had to wait every time a new child get's born into a family, it would take forever before He could come back again. Or most likely; He would never be able coming back at all!

An excellent analogy! Christ, Himself, warned us, “But about that day or hour no one knows, not even the angels in heaven, nor the Son, but only the Father. Be on guard! Be alert! You do not know when that time will come." (Mark 13:32-33) Wouldn't it be a terrible thing to have our house "dirty" when the Savior returns?

Make me meditate such deep that I Could take a look of myself, but honestly we are everything because of his grace, sometimes we think.
That we made it and was Him. His death has been enough for we to be free and out of the nettings of devil.

Thanks to God that we are over and into and covered by his love and mercy.

Therefore, there is now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus, because through Christ Jesus the law of the Spirit who gives life has set you[a] free from the law of sin and death. 3 For what the law was powerless to do because it was weakened by the flesh,[b] God did by sending his own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh to be a sin offering.[c] And so he condemned sin in the flesh, 4 in order that the righteous requirement of the law might be fully met in us, who do not live according to the flesh but according to the Spirit.

But it does not mean we can sin like we have free entrance,I commit many mistake and I know I can do it better he has given me the strength to go on, so love you in the name of Chirst, and do you part because God already did it.

Thank you for reading this thought.
