Thank You so Much!!!

Prove yourselves ready.—Matt. 24:44.

When Jesus made that statement, he himself was ready for a great test—his death as a ransom sacrifice. What can we learn from the way Jesus had prepared himself? Jesus had wholehearted love for Jehovah and for His righteous standards.

Concerning Jesus, Hebrews 1:9 states: “You loved righteousness, and you hated lawlessness. That is why God, your God, anointed you with the oil of exultation more than your partners.”

Because he loved his heavenly Father, Jesus maintained integrity to him. If we have similar love for God and live up to his requirements, he will safeguard us. Such love and obedience will help us to be ready for the great day of Jehovah. This morning when I opened my eyes, I almost cried. It was close. The thought I had when I woke was all that Jesus did for us, and what Jehovah made possible.

To understand why it all happened you have to understand the beginning. Jehovah created us perfect, free from sickness and death. Because of Adam's sin, because of Eve's sin, all of us would die. Jehovah sent his only begotten son to die for us. He did this do we can live.

Today is a special day and should be remembered. Jesus commanded us to keep doing this. If for some reason you cannot make it today. Pray and thank Jehovah. Thank him for sending his son to give us a second chance. Thank him for giving us life. Thank him for sending his son. Thank Jesus for keeping his integrity. Thank Jesus for giving his life. Till Tomorrow....
