UNCLE JAKE planned to take little Donna to the zoo one Saturday. “Be sure to be ready at 1 o’clock sharp!” he told her. “I’ll come by in my car then and pick you up.”
Donna woke up very early Saturday morning, and asked Mother, “Is it time to go to the zoo yet?”
“Oh no!” said Mother, “it’s only 7:30.”
Donna waited on the front porch all morning, for she wanted to be sure to be ready on time. How happy she was when 1 o’clock came! Uncle Jake took her to the zoo, and what a happy time she had seeing the lions, the tigers, the elephants, and many other animals and birds.
For those who love the Lord Jesus, a happy time is coming too. It will be far happier than a trip to the zoo — they are going to heaven to be with their Lord and Saviour forever.
Perhaps today all born again believers will hear the shout that will call them away to be with Jesus, and are you ready, dear reader, to meet Him in the air? Have your sins been washed away in His precious blood?
How sad it would be if you were left behind, for what terrible judgments will fall on this world after the Lord Jesus has taken His people out of it! Flee to the Saviour today for refuge and safety.
“Watch therefore; for ye know not what hour your Lord doth come.” Matt. 24:4242Watch therefore: for ye know not what hour your Lord doth come. (Matthew 24:42).
“Therefore be ye also ready: for in such an hour as ye think not the Son of Man cometh.” Matt. 24:4444Therefore be ye also ready: for in such an hour as ye think not the Son of man cometh. (Matthew 24:44).
