Psalms 55:1-23. Verse 17, if I were more consistent every day with set times of prayer, how would that improve my spiritual alertness and closeness to God?

I Corinthians 3:1-17. Verse 9, what is the building project that God is carrying out in me right now? How far has it progressed? What’s the next goal? How can I do more to speed the project along?
Matthew 24:15-31. Tribulation foretold. If Jesus returns today, what do I want him to find me doing?
