Jeremiah 33:14-16; Psalm 25:1-10; 1Thessalonians 3:9-13; Luke 21:25-36

signs in sun
and moon
and stars
appear
we wait
in anguish-
distraught
at the roaring seas
the heavens shake
we die in fright
at what is coming
upon the earth—
then
hope remembered
a promise fulfilled
a shoot raised up
this Son of Man
will come
we know not when
only that
each heart will
know Truth-
His overflowing love
will strengthen
our weakness
and
our soul
shall be lifted
to paths of
kindness and justice
goodness and compassion
freed from over indulgence
and worldly care
we will embrace
love’s longing
of our heart
and dwell secure

Do you pray constantly for strength?
Will you know Him when he comes?
Do you know Him with you now?
