[Talking about his second coming, Jesus continued,] “But about that day or hour no one knows, not even the angels in heaven, nor the Son, but only the Father.” Mark 13:32 NIV
The greatest secret of all time is the exact day and hour of the Lord’s return. What should our response be to this indiscernible answer to one of life’s most important questions? Doubt? Frustration? Disappointment? No! We know the heart of God because we have seen his heart revealed to us by Jesus. We know he desires us to be saved and come to him through Jesus. We know that he spared nothing, not even his Son, to redeem us and adopt us into his family. So knowing what we know about God, we can be sure that his promises can always be trusted and that our future is secure. Our task is to live for God and be ready for his Son’s return.
Today’s Prayer: Father, please bless me and help me remain diligent in my faith and welcome Jesus when he returns. In his name, I pray. Amen.
