Expectation

What is our expectation for today, tomorrow or the future?  What is it that you are expecting to happen in your life?  Are you expecting a marriage, a new baby or grandchild, a new home or a car?  What are our hearts expectations for our lives?  When I begin to think about expectation, my mind thinks of Christ returning soon.  Oh, what a day that will be when I see Him face to face.  My mind cannot fathom those things that the Lord has in store for those of us who are His children.  I am expecting His return and when I think of his returning I become excited and anxious! Sometimes it is hard for me to stay in my seat or to be quiet because He is coming soon!  My heart becomes so happy and joyful that my Lord is coming to take me home to be with Him for eternity.  I have tears that begin to fall because I have been saved by the Precious Blood of the Lamb who came and gave His life for me.  I was once lost and undone without Christ but because Jesus came and gave His life for mine, I am now a Child of the King.  What a blessed time we are going to have when we get home with our Lord and Savior.  My expectation of entering heaven is that I will run to the Lord and bow down before Him and anoint his feet with my tears and cry out Holy, Holy, Holy is the Lord God Almighty who has redeemed my life.  As the woman in the Bible who anointed Jesus with her tears prior to His burial, my tears will probably make it flood in heaven because the tears will pour out.  I know that the Bible says “God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain: for the former things are passed away.”  How can I see the one who has changed my life and made me whole and not cry out in thankfulness and love for all that I have received?  Worship Him with me as we wait in expectation for His returning is nigh!  Saints, He is coming to take us home! Are you ready?
