"But about that day or that hour, only the Father knows," Mark 13:32.
About what day and hour? The day when the upheavals Jesus detailed moments ago come to consummation. Nobody knows when that'll happen. No angel knows. Jesus doesn't. We not know. Only the Father calls the shots here. Nobody, but nobody else. God makes the end call. Suddenly. Skies, earth, all's gone within the generation. All except. Except Jesus' words. They stay. Whatever trial, he says - Stay ready. Stay on guard. Stay awake. One minute we were doing life's normal stuff. A blink later the hour struck us. Suddenly. But we're Ready! On guard! Awake!
We visit with a brother or sister today in wonder of God's sovereignty. And together we give thanks his love for us controls for that day and hour.
