I am ready for your return. Each day I think, is today the day? The world is falling apart. Families are in a mess. I pray and pray, but it appears that their hearts are hardened.
The people that I know, say they know you and say that they are Christian. But are they? It seems every day I suffer the vicious attacks of their gossiping tongues.
I try to remember that you suffered this, too. And I try to be strong but you are God and I am not. So I rely on you to give me the strength that I need.
Is today the day that the last trump will sound and you will carry me away on your horse of white? To be free from this suit of flesh?
Even so, come Lord, Jesus!
There is work to be finished but the days are growing shorter. Is there enough time to complete the tasks and the race that You have set before me? I do NOT want to fail you!
Help me to complete my ordained assignments. To stand strong against the attacks of the enemy. It is evident every day that he is trying to kill me, emotionally, spiritually and physically.
I want to see you again. To have you wrap your arms around me only to feel safe and secure once more. To step behind the veil into the Holy of Holies and shut out everything and everyone but you.
If only I could stay there. But I know that I have assignments to complete. So I wait for the day when I will just worship you forever. Oh how I long for that day!
Is today the day the world will witness your grand return? As you gather your bride out of this place and return to our real home? Knowing that earth is not my home makes it a little easier to bear.
No more pain, death, sorrow or disease. Only that which is good and comes from You is what I long for. No more night, only living in the Light. So I wait and I watch and I wonder, is today the day?
