If you were anywhere around a television, radio or computer this past weekend you no doubt heard about Harold Camping a Christian Radio host who once again predicted the second coming of Jesus Christ on May 21st. Well, if you are reading this he was obliviously wrong. When you think about it, making a prediction like that is a huge risk for someone who is still alive. If you are wrong then everyone in the world knows that you were wrong and is going to make sure that you know you were wrong. On the other hand, if you are correct and the end of the world does come… no one is around to brag on your prediction being right. No one is around to say, “Harold really knew his math!” I was wondering if Harold had planned on working today since he seemed so sure of himself. As it turns out, he is scheduled to give a speech today.
This does bring to mind an important question, if the end of the world was known to you, would you make any changes in your life? Would you change the way you treated your spouse or your children? Would you change the way you treated your parents or your siblings? How about your friends and neighbors, would you treat them any differently? How would you want to spend your time? What would be the truly important things in your life? Would you read your Bible more or spend more time in prayer? Would you seek out the people in your life that do not know Jesus and make sure that they had at least one shot at hearing about God’s love for them?
Just what in your life would be different? Go ahead, take your time (but not too much) and make your list of the things you would do if you knew the exact time and place of the second coming of Jesus Christ.
Okay…. Got it? Now just two words: DO IT!
That fact is you have no idea when Jesus is coming again. As a matter of fact He does not know when He is coming again. Our focus should be to live each day as if Jesus was coming that day.
Have a great day! Make it count!
Love God. Go Love Others.
