There are a lot of things in life to which we look forward. We anticipate supper time. We anticipate vacation time. We anticipate the return of our spouse who has been away on a trip. Those anticipatory moments make life very interesting sometimes. We're ready for those times when they arise.
As many things in this life there are to anticipate, there is something greater around the corner. When our Lord Jesus comes back as He promised, will we have been looking forward to that great event? I would dare say there will be a lot of people who are not looking forward to that very day. They will have things in their lives that they wished they would have changed. They will want more time to devote their life to Christ. They will be ashamed that they did not obey His Word.
1 John 2:28 says "Now little children, abide in Him, so that when He appears, we may have confidence and not shrink away from Him in shame at His coming." Let us make sure we are those who will be confident at the fact that we belong to Christ when He returns instead of being ashamed in the presence of His power and might and glory. Are you looking forward to it?
