Dear Young Christian,
This morning I have been thinking about the Lord’s coming to call all believers safe home to the Father’s house.
“For the Lord Himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first: Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord” (1 Thessalonians 4:16-17).
This is a wonderful truth and a “blessed hope” (Titus 2:13). While we don’t know exactly when the Lord is coming, one thing is for sure, as you are reading this calendar page today, we are closer to the Lord’s coming than we have ever been before. The promise is, “the coming of the Lord draweth nigh” (James 5:8). Let’s keep this hope before us this week as we carry on with our responsibilities and daily activities. This will encourage and cheer you no matter what the circumstances.
Your Christian Friend,
Jim Hyland
