Do we eagerly long for the coming of Christ? Or do we want him to wait while our love affair with the world runs its course? That is the question that tests the authenticity of faith.

Something to think about!
Absolutely. I think it’s easy for us to desire to hold onto our worldly things hence hoping Christ would wait to come for a while. I know at times I catch myself desiring to see my babies grow, enjoy being retired someday with my beloved and travel the world. But yet again, all is perishable. My heart needs to hunger for Christ’s coming, I ought to eargerly thirst to be in His presence even today. 🙏🌹
I think he is somehow waiting anyway to see how the course will turn eventually. Then, he will decide what is left to be done.
A good question!
Food for thought. And action.
