For you are all children of light, children of the day. We are not of the night or of the darkness. So then let us not sleep, as others do, but let us keep awake and be sober. For those who sleep, sleep at night, and those who get drunk, are drunk at night. But since we belong to the day, let us be sober, having put on the breastplate of faith and love, and for a helmet the hope of salvation. For God has not destined us for wrath, but to obtain salvation through our Lord Jesus Christ.
1 Thessalonians 5:5-9 (ESV)

As you go out this weekend, remember that you can bring light to dark places. And in every situation, ask yourself, “If Christ were to return at this exact moment, how would he find me? Am I ready?” You are children of the day, so stay vigilant, sober, awake, and always armour-clad!
