Previous Daily Devotional About Christ's return… Hebrews 9:28 so Christ was sacrificed once to take away the sins of many people; and he will appear a second time, not to bear sin, but to bring salvation to those who are waiting for him. (NIV) We await the return of Christ upon the earth. We have various theologies concerning His return and the events surrounding His reappearing. In the dark times of our lives we may want Him to still walk the earth as a visible and tangible person. However, when He was with us before, we crucified Him. We did not recognize Him for who He was. Our purpose in our life, should not be to just gaze upward into the sky. Our purpose is not to put all of our life on hold waiting for His return at the next moment. Our purpose in our life is to keep our heart turned toward Heaven and our hands busy doing His will upon the earth. It is God's will, when Christ does return, that we should be tired laborers in the field bringing in His harvest. As preoccupied as we can get over world events and what we may see as the end of time as we know it, we must remember we live in a fallen world full of persons whose lives are dead in heart, mind, and soul. For those people you see, hear, and know every day, your heart in Christ can be the tangible and physical evidence that Christ is still alive and living on the earth. When people look at you, let them see Christ living and alive in your heart and in your life. |
