Meditations on Lest Verses: Lest He Find Us Sleeping

 "Watch therefore, for you do not know when the master of the house is coming—in the evening, at midnight, at the crowing of the rooster, or in the morning — lest, coming suddenly, He find you sleeping." - Mark 12:35, 36

Let no Christian waiting for the coming of Jesus be found sleeping at His coming. This is the most important reminder for those awaiting Jesus.

Lest Jesus find me asleep when He returns.

To ensure He does not find me sleeping, I must watch all the time. I must watch and stay awake to do the tasks assigned to me. I must stay awake to make preparations to go to my heavenly home. I must stay awake so that when my Lord comes, He will not find me sleeping but working for Him.

Those awaiting an important trip cannot sleep; they are eagerly anticipating the trip. And we, who are waiting for the most glorious journey, should stay awake even more diligently.
