Be Ready! (1 Samuel 25-26 / Luke 12)

In I Samuel 25, Abigail displays great wisdom in using her resources to protect her foolish husband's life (v. 18-19) and to help keep David from sinning (v. 33). This indeed was a godly woman whose actions worked out very well for her in the end (v. 42). What types of things are we doing in our own lives to help keep others around us living for God (Hebrews 10:24)? In I Samuel 26, David once again shows his trust in God's sovreignty by choosing not to kill Saul (v. 10).

In Luke 12, we are challenged to be ready (v. 38)! One day, Christ is coming back! When He does, we are sure to find some in our families that have lived their lives for Him and others who have not (v. 52-53). It is important that we use our time on earth to prepare ourselves (v. 58) because if we do not, we will not have another chance (v. 59).
