Standing before the Son of Man

I've been quite upset these days, and I have asked the Lord to strengthen me by looking away unto Him. However, perhaps the Lord allows me to have some suffering from these things so that I can be forced to come to Him again, again, and again. 

While I brought these matters to the Lord this morning, I also open to His speaking. And His Word in Luke chapter 21 has refreshed me. From verses 28-36, many Words have touched me. 

"...that the summer is already near...But take heed to yourselves lest perhaps your hearts be weighed down with debauchery and drunkenness and the anxieties of life, and that day come upon you suddenly as a snare...But be watchful...beseeching that you would prevail to escape all these things...and stand before the Son of Man".

The Lord reminds me of His coming again, and I shall also wholeheartedly care for this matter as well. Of course, there's nothing wrong with me presenting my human needs to Him, but even though I ask for these things, I shall pay attention to my heart. I cannot, and I shall not let anything else to weigh my heart down. On the one hand, I have to take care of the conditions of my heart; and on the other hand, I need to take a proactive approach by being watchful and beseeching so that I can prevail to escape all these things (tribulations) and stand before the Son of Man. 

Lord, how much I want to be the one who stands before the Son of Man with nothing can veil me and weight me down. Lord, please make it a day to love You, seek You, and beseech You wholeheartedly and watchfully.
