Are you waiting with anticipation for the Lord’s return? Have you even thought about it today? Most of us go through our days without thinking Christ could return at any moment. We know it, but it’s not something we keep front of mind. The return of Christ is the most glorious thing a Christian could ever desire. It’s why we live this life.
We place our faith in Jesus because of His love and sacrifice for us, and in return He promises to bring us into eternal life with Him (John 14:2–3; 1 Thessalonians 4:16–17). The pain and drudgery of this life are only endurable because we have the wonderful hope of His promise to rescue us from it all (Romans 8:18). Why, then, do we give so little thought to His return?
