For us today, we live in constant anticipation of His second coming, anxiety of trying to be “ready” and reflection on the first Easter. What happens is that when Jesus ascended, He wasn’t long in his reappearance. Now, we are told of this “second coming” which could be today, tomorrow or ten thousand years from now. There are enbough distractions in this modern world that we drift in and out of that anticipation. There are enough worldwide natural disasters (another earthquake in Chile yesterday)wars and religious rebellion on a major scale that one could truly begin to see the real possibility of the signs of His second coming based on John The Revelators writings in the Book of Revelations. Are we in greater anticipation that He might come at any moment or are we secretly in greater anticipation that we might have won the lottery last night? Just something to ponder!
