But you, brothers, are not in the darkness, and the Day should not take you by surprise like a thief. All of you are people who belong to the light, who belong to the day. We do not belong to the night or to the darkness. So then, we should not be sleeping like the others; we should be awake and sober. It is at night when people sleep; it is at night when they get drunk.. But we belong to the day, and we should be sober. We must wear faith and love as a breastplate, and our hope of salvation as a helmet. God did not choose us to suffer his anger, but to possess salvation through our Lord Jesus Christ, who died for us in order that we might live together with him, whether we are alive or dead when he comes. And so encourage one another and help one another, just as you are now doing.

1 Thessalonians 5:4-11

Are you ready? Are you ready to die? Are you ready to live? You need to answer these questions. The real question is what heaven will be like? Just know that He is coming and He is preparing a place for you, and for me. Are you ready?

Jesus may come at any time,

so we should be ready all the time.
