Wake Up!

"I know thy works, and thy labour, and thy patience, and how thou canst not bear them which are evil: and thou hast tried them which say they are apostles, and are not, and have found them liars." -Revelation 2:2

"Brothers and sisters in Christ, we are called, aren't we, to a life where we are to lead a life that is separated from the world. Here He said, I notice that you can't bear them which are evil. There's a theme throughout the Scriptures that talks about leading separated lives. That we don't let the world filter into our hearts and lives. That we don't let the things of this life bog us down, the cares of this life.

"Maybe there's one of you that came this morning and you're thinking about yesterday or tomorrow. Or you are thinking about where you might make your next dollar. I just encourage you -- WAKE UP! It's all going to burn up! We're going to lose it all. We won't take any of it with us. But the busy-ness of life sometimes can draw us away from God, can't it? We can be busy, [even] in things that are good."
