Jesus Is Coming Soon!

Listen to this blog.


God has something stored up for you in heaven, where it will never decay or be ruined or disappear. You have faith in God, whose power will protect you until the last day. Then he will save you, just as he has always planned to do. On that day you will be glad, even if you have to go through many hard trials for a while.”

1 Peter 1:4-6

Life may be a bed of roses, but don't forget the thorns. We all experience joy and sorrow, pleasure and pain, and a roller coaster of emotions as we live out the years God has given us. For many of us the cycle of life is at the bottom right now. When we look around we see lots of pain and distress. Our future on this earth seems bleak at best and the trends are all going down, not up.

God made a fruit to grow in Southeast Asia that is symbolic of life itself. The fruit is called a Durian and it is greatly loved and hated at the same time. The delicious fruit emits an odor that is very difficult to endure for most. The best description I have ever heard is that eating Durian is like eating vanilla ice cream while standing over an open sewer! For you, life may seem like it was hard enough and then you dropped the ice cream in the sewer!

Could things get worse than they are right now? Of course they could. But here is the Good News! Jesus will return, just like He said He would and when He does sorrow, pain and suffering will all come to an abrupt end for those who love Jesus. If you love Jesus, His return will be the most Glorious moment you have ever experienced. If you do not love Jesus, His return will truly make things worse! The pleasure will leave, but the pain will stay. Joy will vanish and sorrow will consume you forever. For you the return of Jesus will be the most tragic moment of your eternal existence.

Wake up! Jesus loves you and truly wants you to love Him back. And you will never, ever regret it!
