DAILY READINGS: 2 Samuel 20; Jeremiah 4:3-31; Galatians 5:10-26
Wherefore comfort one another with these words. 1 Thes. 4:18
The Thessalonians were worried about the state of those who died before the Rapture. Talk about living on the edge of expectancy for Christ’s coming. Almost 2,000 years have passed since then, so should we be living any less expectantly today? Paul says to take comfort in the fact that one day, at His shout, we will be caught up together to meet Him in the air and so shall we ever be with the Lord. Whatever may be troubling us today, let this hope encourage and “Comfort one another with these words”. —C. Tempest
One day the trumpet will sound for His coming;
One day the skies with his glory will shine;
Wonderful day my beloved ones bringing;
Glorious Savior, this Jesus is mine. —J. Wilber Chapman
