Trust in the Light - While There is Still Time

Meditate. Act on God’s Word…while there is still time.

Jesus replied, "My light will shine for you just a little longer. Walk in the light while you can, so the darkness will not overtake you. Those who walk in the darkness cannot see where they are going. Put your trust in the light while there is still time; then you will become children of the light." After saying these things, Jesus went away and was hidden from them. John 12:35-36

While there is still time. It may be days, months or years before the Rapture occurs and before the seven years of Tribulation begins. Maybe you are one of those who think this will never happen, but I’ve felt for years that the Rapture would occur in my lifetime. Recently, since I’ve attained an age that is considered “old” I’ve begun to rethink the whole idea of feelings about the Rapture. Sure things have to happen…and Israel is back in the Promised Land, but there have been earthquakes, volcanos, wars and rumors of wars for thousands of years and we are still waiting for Christ to return. God’s plan is on His schedule…not ours. His time is not the same as on our calendars.

But you must not forget this one thing, dear friends: A day is like a thousand years to the Lord, and a thousand years is like a day. 2 Peter 3:8

So, I’ll put aside my feelings and live each day for the Lord, waiting patiently. Trusting in the Lord...trusting in the Light.

Wait patiently for the LORD. Be brave and courageous. Yes, wait patiently for the LORD. Psalm 27:14

Are you waiting for the Lord to return? Be sure that you…Put your trust in the light while there is still time. Jesus is the light of the world. Trusting Him for your salvation is essential if you want to live eternally with Him. Trust in the light...while there is still time.

Prayer ~ Lord Jesus…I am waiting for Your return. Is that home in Heaven about done? While there is still time, help me to share Your Good News with others. You are the light of the world and I put my trust in You. 

Verse of Salvation ~ So it is good to wait quietly for salvation from the LORD. Lamentations 3:26
