Are You Prepared to Leave?

Our government urges every individual and family to have an emergency preparedness plan when (not if) a disaster strikes. FEMA has written “An In-depth Guide to Citizen Preparedness: Are You Ready?” providing step-by-step instructions that include putting together a disaster supply kit.

It seems to me that as we see the signs of Christ’s return, we should be making preparations too. But there is a striking difference in our plan. The earthlings are preparing to stay. The believers are preparing to leave.

“Therefore, prepare your minds for action; be self-controlled; Look forward to the gracious salvation that will come to you when Jesus Christ is revealed to the world … then you also will be revealed with Him in glory" (1 Peter 1:13; Colossians 3:3).
