Be “ye yourselves like unto men that wait for their Lord, when He will return from the wedding; that when He cometh and knocketh, they may open unto Him immediately.” Luke 12:36.
We know not the hour of His return. Let us, therefore, he ready.
He expects us to be not only awake, but watching, and near the door, ready to obey His knock.
May we be found at His coming, redeeming the time, holding fast to His Word, and waiting for His coming. The most faithful watcher for Christ, will be the most earnest worker for Him. Workers may not be good watchers, but good watchers will be earnest workers. So, too, as regards holding the truth, such as are most faithful to Christ will be most faithful to the truth.
