Most people have their own idea of a dream ride. What's yours?
My 3 boys that think a 4x4 pickup truck is where it's at.
Um, I beg to differ. My idea of a dream ride is much more beautiful...
A Jaguar - now that's a dream ride! Luxurious British tan leather interior, a powerful, whisper quiet V12 engine, racing down the highway, with its sleek lines and great styling, what more could you want from a vehicle?
(Just so you know... I work in a medical office, not at a car dealership. LOL.)
It's unlikely that I would ever own a beautiful Jaguar, but a girl can dream, right? :)
Hold on tight while I put the pedal to the metal!
You may want to hold on when certain people are driving, especially in a fast car.
Did you know Jesus tells us to hold on?
You may have noticed several posts here recently about the time of Jesus' return. He said no one knows when but only the Father knows (Mt 24:36).
I'm not a prophet, by any stretch of the imagination, but Jesus did give us signs to look for (Matthew 24).
With everything that's going on in the world today, I believe He could come back very soon.
No matter what you are facing in this moment, or what all Christians may face in the future, we have hope and we have something and Someone to hold on to. The Someone we can hold on to is Jesus and the something we can hold on to is His promise.
One day, very soon, "we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord" (1 Thessalonians 4:17).
He also said, "Behold, I come quickly: hold that fast which thou hast..." (Revelation 3:11)
Revelation 2 and 3 are the messages Jesus delivered through John to the 7 churches. He commended some and chastised others. Right before Jesus said, "Behold, I come quickly," He praised the church of Philadelphia saying, "... you kept my Word in passionate patience" (Revelation 3:10 MSG).
What are we to hold on to while we wait for Jesus to return and meet us in the air?
His Word, His truth and His promises to us.
In 1 Corinthians 6:13, were told, "Be watchful, stand firm in the faith, act like men, be strong."
In other words, "Hold on to the truth. Hold on to Jesus. Hold on to His Word."
Jesus is coming very soon. Hold on!
