As children we spend a lot of time looking forward. We wait with eager anticipation for our birthday or Christmas. We don‘t necessarily have to do anything except wait. As youth we anticipate getting our driver license or going to the prom. Again this involves waiting, but we also have things we need to do to be prepared.Advent is a season of anticipation, a time of waiting, but also a time of preparation. Jesus is coming and we need to be ready. In this season we celebrate that He came as a baby, but we also anticipate that he is coming again as the Lord of Lords and King of Kings who will judge the earth and establish His kingdom, creating a new heaven and new earth, the home of righteousness. Since we don‘t know the time of His coming we need to always be prepared by making every effort to be found spotless, blameless and at peace with Him so that we may enjoy the day of His coming. Let‘s keep our eyes peeled and our hearts and minds prepared! He‘s coming!
