The dam is holding for now........

Hello everyone! We had a great leader/chaperone meeting for the SWAT (Spiritual Warfare And Tactics) Youth Retreat last night. It was awesome to see a group of adult that love these young people so much. We have 72 going on the retreat! Yea God!!! Our largest group so far. Going to be awesome. I want to talk about the same subject from yesterday. The second coming of Jesus. let's dig into the good stuff.......

Bible Verse: 2 Peter 3:9 "The Lord is not slack concerning His promise, as some men count slackness; but is long suffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance."

I have had some people ask me why Jesus hasn't come back yet. Have you ever wondered why? I'll tell you why I think and what I believe the scripture says: because our Lord is waiting on people to be saved. He's waiting on your family member, your neighbor, your co-worker, or maybe you, but one of these days soon, and very soon I believe, Jesus will come. You see, it is God's mercy that holds back the Second Coming of Jesus, but God's justice and judgment require that one day He will come. Even now, the raging waters of God's wrath are furiously pounding against the dam of His mercy. With the way things are going in the world. But, this is nothing new for God. He has been dealing with an ungodly people since Adam and Eve. He so wants us to come to Him before the dam of His mercy gives way to His judgment, and that day He will come back. We have good news our Lord is coming! Does this make your heart beat faster because you anticipate His coming or dread His coming? How is your walk? Is there anything you need to take care of? If you knew Jesus was coming back Friday at noon. What would you do? Who would you take to? Would you share Jesus more until Friday? Would you love more? Would you pray more? We don't we pretend it's Friday and keep pretending it's the next Friday. Watch what happens in our lives. Have a great day, I love you, and God bless. Talk to ya Friday????
