Being ready is a pretty serious idea, right? We heard that in some gospel parables, and we heard it again here in 1 Thessalonians. Being “awake”. . . living “in the light”. . . being “ready.” That’s what characterizes the followers of Jesus.
While we were taught the importance of the coming of the heavenly King, we also got an important reminder. Getting obsessed in the details of the timing of His coming might distract us from the main event. And from being really ready.
