God, the one and only—
I’ll wait as long as he says.
Everything I need comes from him,
so why not?
2 THESSALONIANS 1:6-7 (MSG)
When the Master Jesus appears out of heaven in a blaze of fire with his strong angels, he’ll even up the score by settling accounts with those who gave you such a bad time. His coming will be the break we’ve been waiting for.
THE ESSENCE
Wait for Jesus to make things right..
DAILY FODDER
It's all about patience and trust.
PRAYER
Thank you, God, for the promise of justice. I confess that I lose my cool when I see how the marginalized and poor of the world are being treated, too often by people who claim to be Christians. Help me to act with prophetic wisdom while I'm confidently waiting for you to make the world right again. I'm trusting that you will keep your word. Come, Lord Jesus, come. Maranatha! Amen.
THE LORD’S PRAYER (ABP)
Our Father in Heaven,
we hold your name in the highest regard.
Please come and establish your reign here on earth
so that everything that happens here will align
with what is happening in heaven.
