Are You Looking for Jesus?
“For I know that this will turn out for my deliverance through your prayer and the supply of the Spirit of Jesus Christ, according to my earnest expectation and hope that in nothing I shall be ashamed, but with all boldness, as always, so now also Christ will be magnified in my body, whether by life or by death. For to me, to live is Christ, and to die is gain.”
PHILIPPIANS 1:19-21

Ponder This
Some teenagers were out, and one of them suggested they do something they ought not to do, but a godly girl in that crowd said, “No, I don’t want to do that.” And one of them began to tease her and said, “Oh, you’re afraid of what your dad will do, aren’t you?” She said, “No, I’m afraid of what I’d do to my dad.” See, that’s the difference between law and love! Every person who says, “I am a blood brother of the Lord Jesus Christ,” wants to be pure when the Lord Jesus comes. We are to be looking for His coming; we’re to be living for His coming; and we ought to be longing for His coming.
You know, when I was a kid, I used to hear preachers preach about the Second Coming of Jesus and I thought, “Oh, what rotten luck. I won’t even get to get married. I won’t get to do all those things I want to do. My life’s going to be cut short.” The longer I live and the more I see, the more I understand that the best thing that could happen to any of us is for Jesus Christ to come right now. Don’t you worry—you’re not going to miss out on life if Jesus comes right now. It is all gain.
