Live for the Future



This scripture in Luke helps to prepare us for the second coming of Christ and how important it is to recognize what is happening in the world, what to do, and what to believe.  Having faith and believing in Jesus is what fuels us for the roads we travel.  The decisions we make determine the direction of the road we travel.  The further from Jesus we are the more difficult the road, the closer we are the smoother the road. 

When will Jesus return?  No person on earth knows but we do know it will happen and it will be in the future.  The fig tree parable guarantees God’s words will come true just as the seasons come and go.  If we live as Jesus did and how he has taught us, then our lives are much more fulfilling and the road we travel leads to eternal life.  Live for the future so when you stand before the Son of Man all will be well and eternal life will be yours.

Prayer:  Heavenly Father, Thanks for all our many blessings, be with us and help us to remain on the good road with the decisions we make.  Give us the ability to live our lives as your Son lived his so one day in the future when we are with him all will be well.  In Jesus’ name, Amen.
