Thoughts on Today's Verse...

You gotta know it! Jesus IS coming back! Are you ready? Are you waiting? Are you eager? I sure hope you are because our salvation and the Lord's glory await those who are eagerly anticipating his coming (Romans 8:19, 23; 1 Corinthians 1:7; Galatians 5:5). As Paul says to the Philippians:
[O]ur citizenship is in heaven. And we eagerly await a Savior from there, the Lord Jesus Christ, who, by the power that enables him to bring everything under his control, will transform our lowly bodies so that they will be like his glorious body (Philippians 3:20-21).

My Prayer...

O come Lord Jesus! Your bride awaits you! To you belongs the glory, forever and ever! Amen.
(Prayer adapted from 1 Corinthians 16:22 & Revelation 21:2, 9; 22:17.)
