Prayer based on Matthew 24:42. Themes: Watchfulness, Second Coming, Uncertainty

Dear Lord, help me to always be watchful and alert, for I do not know the hour in which you will come. May I never be caught off guard or unprepared for your return. Give me the strength and wisdom to live each day in a way that honors you and brings glory to your name. Thank you for your love and grace, and for the promise of your coming. In Jesus’ name, Amen.
