The Day of the Lord is coming.

Respond now...
Judgment Day is coming. What day? I don't know. What time? I don't know. What I do know is that it is coming!
Responding to this pending judgment NOW is crucial. Judgment Day is something we must be prepared for BEFORE it comes. We must already be at peace with the Great Judge before we stand before Him.
Imagine the many who are complacent about the Lord... think about people who are living for the weekend... living for hobbies, habits, comfort, pleasure, leisure... living for their own kingdoms... think about people whose entire concentration is on self... what will Judgment Day be like for such as these?
"Their goods shall be plundered, and their houses laid waste. Though they build houses, they shall not inhabit them; though they plant vineyards, they shall not drink wine from them. The great day of the LORD is near, near and hastening fast; the sound of the day of the LORD is bitter; the mighty man cries aloud there." (Zephaniah 1:13-14 ESV)
What will it be like to set our hearts ONLY on enjoying the things of this earth only to never fully enjoy them?
Let us seek the Lord while He is being found. Let us not wait until there is no time to respond to the Lord.
