Another way to “beat the winter blues” we are told is to “organise something to look forward to.” We are looking forward to our next birthday. Do we? Some people do, some do not. But I think I can safely say that all of us are looking forward to Christmas, even if it is only for the time off.

Followers of the Lord Jesus Christ are looking forward to The Second Coming of the Lord Jesus Christ.

KAITAIA: In the middle of Winter

I have learnt that The Second Coming of the Lord Jesus Christ is mentioned 318 times in 260 chapters in the New Testament. Did you know that?

The Second Coming of the Lord was foretold by the prophets, by Jesus himself, by the apostle Paul and by the angels. We do not know about the time of Christ’s coming, but we are told about the purpose. We are also told about the signs of Christ’s coming. The manner of His coming is suddenly. You can read that in Mark 13:36.

If organising something to look forward to helps us to survive and thrive in June-August (Winter), how much more helps us anticipating The Second Coming of the Lord Jesus Christ in our life. And we do not organise The Second Coming of the Lord Jesus Christ, it is organised for us.
