Last night I was talking with my friend Sek about the second coming of Jesus, real briefly in our 2-hour hang time at subway [eat fresh, yall.] And then this morning I was reading Psalm 39 which features bit of a concerned David on what is going to come of him and the rest of his days and this reminded me of this conversation last night.
Now thinking about it, it doesn’t totally matter in a way when Jesus is going to come back because either way, I am confident in where I am going. My confidence rests in that truth. But as a human and an imperfect one at that, I can be selfish at times. There are still so many things that I would love to see happen in this life on Earth that God has blessed me with. I would love to know what it is like to have a kid and just love that kid more than anything with God’s heart. I would love to see my family come to know Jesus. I would love to see Thailand bow before the KING OF KINGS. I would love to open up my dream coffee shop. I would love to finish SBS!
But who knows when Christ will come again. I don’t and he doesn’t either. And honestly I think that is a bit of a comforting thing. We can rest in the fact that God knows and that His timing is perfect and he won’t come back until God knows the people are ready.
But as we are waiting we need to not to fucus on when he is going to come and bring us home - we need to focus on telling our lost brothers and sisters how to get there.
