JESUS WILL COME BACK FOR YOU!
AUGUST 16
John 14:3
JESUS WILL COME BACK FOR YOU!
"It seems like Mom and Dad have been away forever!" said David one day. "Why are they gone so long?"
Hannah smiled at her little brother. "Dad’s firm is opening an office in Bangkok, and we’re all going to move there. You know that, David," she said. "Dad had to go ahead to attend some business meetings, and Mom went along to check out things out."
"They shouldn’t be gone too much longer now that they’ve found a house," said Grandma, who was staying with the children while their parents were away.
"You know what Jenny said today?" asked Hannah. "She said Dad and Mom left us for good and that they’re never coming back for us.""You didn’t believe a word of that, did you?" asked Grandma.
Hannah shook her head. "Nope. They said they would return. They promised!""That’s right,"said Grandma,"and when they get here,we need to be ready for them. Since you’ll be moving soon, there’s a lot that needs to be done."
"Let’s have everything in tip-top shape when they get back," said Hannah, and everyone got busy. "Can you think of anyone else who’s getting a place ready for us?" asked Grandma. "Ah… who?" asked David. "I can’t think of anybody, either," said Hannah.
"Jesus is doing that," said Grandma, "and we don’t know when He’s coming, either, but we know He will come because He said He would." She smiled. "We’re working hard to be ready when your parents return, and we should be working hard to be ready for the Lord’s return, too. We should be doing our best to live the way He wants us to live-loving and serving Him, getting along with one another, and telling friends about Jesus."
"I wonder who will come first-Mom and Dad or Jesus," said Hannah. She looked anxiously at Grandma. "I kind of hope Mom and Dad do," she added, "and that we’ll all be together when Jesus comes!"
Thought: Are you aware that Jesus is coming back? He went to prepare a place in Heaven for His children, and when the time is right, He’ll come back for them.
Prayer: Heavenly Father, may I learn to be ready for the return of Jesus. Teach me to do the things that please Him, and to seek Him daily! This is my prayer in Jesus’ name – Amen.
