He will return

We who follow the teachings of Christ Jesus have been waiting for His return for a very long time. So long in fact that I think many of His followers have gotten tired of waiting. The distractions of the enemy camp have lulled them into apathy and weariness. When the One you love is gone for so long it becomes very difficult to remain faithful to the love that you shared. The memories of the times you spent together begin to fade and become difficult to remember. The warmth of His touch begins to cool and one must search the depths of memory to feel it again. The secret is realizing that He is also spirit and can return to you whenever you ask Him to do so. You can spend time with Him, feel His presence and His touch. You can read His Word and hear His voice.
I feel His sorrow when His beloved choose the easy road of forgetting. It weighs heavy on my heart and makes breathing difficult sometimes. If His beloved only realized how valuable they are, what price He paid so that they could be with Him and experience all the love and gifts that He has for them. There is such a great inheritance of riches for those who faithfully follow the teachings of Christ. We follow a mighty King who is wise and just and merciful, who is holy and fierce and powerful. Great is His name!
