Writing 1 Thessalonians 4
Good morning…. We have ‘Good News’ today!!
Paul says, “Encourage one another with these words.”
“For since we believe that Jesus died and rose again, even so, through Jesus, God will bring with him those who have fallen asleep. For this we declare to you by a word from the Lord, that we who are alive, who are left until the coming of the Lord, will not precede those who have fallen asleep. For the Lord himself will descend from heaven with a cry of command, with the voice of an archangel, and with the sound of the trumpet of God. And the dead in Christ will rise first. Then we who are alive, who are left, will be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air, and so we will always be with the Lord.”
Oh what joyous words. What a beautiful scene. I am looking forward to that day. Whether I am here on earth or have gone on to sleep (no longer alive on this earth), I look forward to meeting the Lord Jesus. My hope is that you too will be in that number.
I hope everyone is having a wonderful day!!
