Advent: The Promise of Jesus' Return

Just like before, God has given us hints and clues about how and when Jesus will return. Just like before, we wait. Sometimes we wait patiently. Sometimes we wait with tears and frustration. This time, Jesus will not come in the middle of the night as a baby. He will not be weak and helpless. He will come back, and He will ride out of the sky on a horse, carrying a sword. He will do battle with Satan and win. While we wait, let us, the people of God, be found ready in the waiting, as we live lives of holiness, godliness and hopeful expectation.
