“And there will be signs in sun and moon and stars, and on the earth distress of nations in perplexity because of the roaring of the sea and the waves, people fainting with fear and with foreboding of what is coming on the world. For the powers of the heavens will be shaken. And then they will see the Son of Man coming in a cloud with power and great glory. Now when these things begin to take place, straighten up and raise your heads, because your redemption is drawing near.”(Luke 21:25-28 ESV)
As Jesus leaves the immediate future of His disciples and looks ahead long-term, things look rather scary. And for one without Christ, they are. But we are to have another perspective when we see His coming getting closer. We are to stand up and take notice, because our Savior is coming. We are not to look with fear to the horizon, but to look with anticipation for our salvation to be complete. How do you look into the future?
