Praise the Lord—it is almost Sunday! In order to help get us ready for church, here is Thomas Watson, from his, "The Ten Commandments" book:
"Each Sabbath may be the last one we shall ever keep. We may go from the place of hearing to the place of judging—and shall we not give careful atten-tion to the Word? If we thought this way, when we come into God's house, 'Perhaps this will be the last time that God will ever counsel me about my soul; and before another sermon death's alarm may sound in my ears’—then, what attention and devotion we would feel, and our affections would be all on fire in hearing the Word!“We must give an account for every sermon we hear. 'Give an account of your stewardship,' (Lk. 16:2). So will God say, 'Give an account of your hearing. Have you been affected with the Word? Have you profited by it?' How can we give a good account, if we have been distracted in our hearing, and have not taken notice of what has been said to us? The Judge to whom we must give an account is God. . . . "
