Wake Me Up Lord
Scripture: Mark 13 [36] If he comes suddenly, do not let him find you sleeping.:
Observation: If Jesus came now I would be asleep. I get up each morning and pray and I want to make a difference, but I fall in the same rot, go to work, eat dinner, watch television and go to bed. Lately I’ve been so tired that we haven’t gone to our Wednesday night Bible study and if we don’t serve at church on Saturday I don’t go. I wonder if when He comes He finds me sleeping if He would even wake me up.
Application: I need to get busy. God has given me the testimony on depression and has allowed me to write a book and guided me through a class I can give to draw others nearer to Him. I need to get more involved in the church and make an effort to go out and find ways to serve. I need to take the no doze of serving others in His precious name.
Prayer: Dear Lord my spirit is willing but my flesh is weak. Strengthen me and guide me in fulfilling the purpose you have created me for and wake me up. May I be busy when you return and then keep me busy for all eternity.
