1 Corinthians 1: 1-9; Psalm 145: 2-7 Matthew 24: 42-51

Stand ready

Life is full of surprises. Things can happen and we find ourselves quite unprepared. But the life of faith leads us to expect the Lord to help us, to speak to us, to guide us. We can cultivate such an attitude by reflecting on how the Lord has blessed us recently. Gratitude can lead to readiness.
