Death Clock 
------------------------------------

Read: 1 Peter 4:7-11

------------------------------------

The end of all things is at hand; therefore be serious and watchful in your prayers. ~  I Peter 4:7
------------------------------------

There is a Web site that claims to predict when you will die. After you answer a series of questions, your projected date of death appears along with a digital clock counting down the number of seconds you have left to live. It's all based on current life-expectancy charts, but seeing it on a computer screen makes it more vivid. As the site says, it's "the Internet's friendly reminder that life is slipping away."

God in His wisdom doesn't tell us the day of our death. Nor do we know the day of Christ's return. The Bible urges us to live for Christ and be prepared for either event. Peter wrote, "The end of all things is at hand; therefore be serious and watchful in your prayers... Have fervent love for one another... Be hospitable to one another without grumbling. As each one has received a gift, minister it to one another, as good stewards of the manifold grace of God" (1 Peter 4:7-10).

Jesus said, "Be ready, for the Son of Man is coming at an hour you do not expect... Blessed is that servant whom his master will find so doing when he comes" (Luke 12:40,43).

As Christians, we need not panic as we see our time slipping away. Instead, let's live every moment for Christ and be prepared to meet Him today.

~  David McCasland    
--------------------------------
The godless ponder death with fear --
For what's ahead they cannot see;
But those who put their faith in Christ
Anticipate eternity.

Thought For The Day: 

Be ready for your last moment by being ready every moment.
