“Therefore, keep awake, for you do not know when the master of the house will come, in the evening or at midnight or at cockcrow or at dawn, or else he may find you asleep when he comes suddenly. And what I say to you I say to all: Keep awake.” Mark 13:35-37
Mark’s encouragement in this eschatology passage is to “keep awake.” How does that translate for us today? It means we should be prepared and to be prepared means we live life in the present by loving like God.
