Watch and Pray

I took the time this morning to actually read my bible before coming to work. Naturally, once I opened it I was spoken to. I wanted to read about the night Jesus went into the garden. He had already told his disciples what was going to happen to him and he desparately needed to talk to his Father. What did the disciples do? They fell asleep! The master had just explained he was going to be arrested and sentenced to death and would rise again.....and they fell asleep!

Now we know what Jesus told them was true. He was arrested. He did die. He rose again. On over in His word he tells us again what is going to happen. Things will change. Life may even get rough. Then He says He's coming back to get us!

We all want to go to heaven. We want to see Jesus who died for our sins....but it's been years and years since He was here last. We're tired. ...."Watch and pray that you enter not into temptation: the spirit indeed is willing, but the flesh is weak." Matthew 26:41

Are you watching? Are you praying?
