Be ready, servant of Christ, for thy Master comes on a sudden; when an ungodly world least expects Him. See to it thou be found faithful in doing His work, for the grave shall soon be dug for thee. Be ready, parents, see that your children are brought up in holy fear of the Lord; for they must soon be orphans. Be ready, men of business, take care that your affairs are in order, and that you serve God with whoe hearts; for your days in earthly service are numbered, and you will be called into account for your stewardship. May we all be prepared to stand before the tribunal dais of the Great King, with such care as shall be rewarded with the gracious commendation: "Well done, good and faithful servant." :-D
