"So you, too, must keep watch! For you don't know what day your Lord is coming."
Matthew 24:42
I just love watching my Granddaughter Alice. She is so alive with life and lives each moment as if it was the last, to the fullest, without worry for the next day. As I watch her, I am constantly aware that she reminds me so much of how my life should be lived for the Lord.
This latest photo I took of her has me thinking about how I should live my life as if "watching and waiting for the Lord's return"
You wouldn't know it, but just moments before this photo was taken she was running out, bouncing up and down and playing as if she didn't have a care in the world, and then for some reason she all the sudden says..."Mama be back soon" and runs to the window looking and watching for her to return.
How often we are like that in our lives. We live life, as if there isn't a care in the world, and then all the sudden we stop and realize that "Jesus be back soon"...and our attention is drawn upward in anticipation of the day we will see Him face to face.
