"Keep Your Senses, Be Watchful!" -MAKE THE BEST USE OF YOUR TIME

Jesus' disciples were not to be idle while they awaited the conclusion of the system of things. Jesus gave them work to do. He commanded  them to preach the good news  "in Jerusalem, ion all Judea and Samaria, and to the most distant part of the earth." (Acts 1:6-8) What an enormous assignment Jesus' s received!  By devoting themselves to that assignment, they made the best use of their time.

Read Colossians 4:5.  In order to pay attention to ourselves, we need to consider how we use our time.  "Unexpected events" can affect any one of us.  (Ecclesiastes 9:11) Our life can suddenly be cut short.

We can make the best use our time by doing Jehovah's will and strengthening our friendship with him.  (John 14:21)  We need to "be steadfast, immovable, always having plenty to do in the work of the Lord." (1 Corinthians 15:58)  Then when the end comes-whether it is the end of our life or the end of this wicked system-we will have no regrets. - MATTHEW 24:13; ROMANS 14:8.
