Eyes To The Sky

Do you long for His appearing?The Apostle Paul did. He was nearly used up by the time he writes to Timothy from Roman prison. He was looking for the coming of the Lord's Day, or union with Christ immediately after his own death, whichever came first (2 Timothy 4:8). For Paul we know that it was the latter. He will be among the dead who will be resurrected on that glorious day. But for some, there will be no death. There will be the sound of trumpets and the shouts of angels and the glorious and terrible sight of the coming of the Lord. Eyes to the skies brothers and sisters. Look for Him! The bible describes that day very well. You can read about it yourself. I would advise that you do so ( Daniel 7:13, Matthew 24:30, 26:64, Mark 13:26, 14:62, 1 Corinthians 15:52, 1 Thessalonians 4:17, Revelation 1;17). As for me, the older I get the more that I long for His appearing.

 

One more sunrise,

One more moon,

One more morning,

One more noon,

One more song,

One more tune,

I sure hope He gets here soon.

 

One more hope,

One more fear,

One more river,

One more tear

One more waking,

One more wait,

One more struggle with love or hate.

One more longing,

One more pain,

One more loss,

One more gain.

One more whisper,

One more wink,

One more meal,

One more drink.

One more hug,

One more kiss,

One more thought for those we miss.

One more day,

One more living,

One more prayer of praise and thanksgiving.

One more mile,

One more wave,

One more smile,

One more face.

One more victory,

Once more His strength,

One more failure,

Once more His grace.

 

One more sunrise,

One more moon,

One more morning,

One more noon,

One more song,

One more tune,

I sure hope He gets here soon.
