A mother was explaining, to her little girl, the death of her father. The mother said:
“God has sent for your father & will send for us, but I
do not know just when.”
Finally, the little girl said:
“If we do not know just when God is going to send for us, do
you not think we had better pack up & be ready to go? God might send for us
when we are not ready.”

Luke 12:40 (GW) “Be ready, because the Son of Man will
return when you least expect him.”
“The only difference in death between a Christian and one
who is not is that the Christian is ready to meet Jesus. A Christian is dead
already - dead to the world, but alive to Christ. Death for you as a child of
God is to fall asleep in His arms and awake in the other world, alive forever
beyond the power of pain, safe forever from all sickness and suffering.” - Winkie Pratney.
