faithfully waiting

Mark 13:21-37
32"But concerning that day or that hour, no one knows, not even the angels in heaven, nor the Son, but only the Father. 33 Be on guard, keep awake. For you do not know when the time will come. 34 It is like a man going on a journey, when he leaves home and puts his servants in charge, each with his work, and commands the doorkeeper to stay awake. 35 Therefore stay awake—for you do not know when the master of the house will come, in the evening, or at midnight, or when the rooster crows, or in the morning— 36lest he come suddenly and find you asleep. 37And what I say to you I say to all: Stay awake."
Heavenly Father, it amazes me that you know the timing of the end of the world and Jesus's return, but He doesn't. That boggles my mind.  Regardless, I want to be faithfully watching for His return.  I want you to find me faithful when He returns.  I want to stay awake and pray.  I want to be walking with Christ when He comes.  Please help me serve Christ diligently.  Holy Spirit, please help me listen to the specific instructions that you have given me to carry out.  I love you, and I need you.  Please draw me close to you.  I ask in the name of Jesus Christ, who is returning soon.
