so Christ was sacrificed once to take away the sins of many; and he will appear a second time, not to bear sin, but to bring salvation to those who are waiting for him. Hebrews 9:28 NIV
What do you do when you are waiting for someone? Do you pave anxiously, get upset, get worried, keep looking out the window, keep checking your phone? I did when I was waiting for my daughter to come home for a visit. I was busy doing last minute things around the house making sure everything was perfect. I kept checking my phone yo see if she'd called. I looked out the window, walked around the yard. I tried yo keep busy but I was excited and anxious all at once.
So what are doing as we wait for Jesus to return? Are you waiting for him? If so, are you preparing your home, getting things ready? We should be. We should be as Jesus once said, I must be about my father's business. If not, if we are busy sou g other things, we might miss him! And that thought is enough to make me hit my knees and ask what I need to be doing to be about my father's business.
Let's make sure our house is ready for his visit.
