Be Alert

June 6, 2026

Last night I said something I rarely say, “What an exciting baseball game!”

From the multiple errors by the opposing team, to the whopping number of runs walked in, to the double-digit final score of the home team. . . I was so glad I stayed awake for the entire game!

But let’s face it, that’s not always how it goes.

Even my die-hard fan of a husband sometimes dozes off while watching his team play ball.

And that’s okay.

As long as we DO pay attention to what’s truly important in life.

1 Peter 5:8, “Be sober-minded; be watchful. Your adversary the devil prowls around like a roaring lion, seeking someone to devour.”

Matthew 24:42, “Therefore, stay awake, for you do not know on what day your Lord is coming.”

Are you aware of your final destination? Do you know for certain where you are going when you die?

Even though my mom lived much longer than anyone expected, tomorrow is not guaranteed for any of us.

The end can happen in an instant.

Are you ready?
