Christ is coming soon. Are you expecting him eagerly? Even demons know that this coming will inevitably happen, and they tremble, whereas those that are superficial are captivated by the appearances of technology, worldly development, and perishable inventions. They are moving gradually away from God and forgetting him. Their consciences are becoming numbed, and their unclean sins are the emblem of their life.
Blessed is he who expects the coming of the Son of God, keeps watching in the evening of our time, serves all men as a servant of Christ, and answers quickly the commands of his Spirit. Such faithful servant is like a servant who lights a lamp at night waiting for his master to light to him upon his blessed entering. The wise servant knows that his Lord does not come alone, but brings his bride with him. He wants to light the way to her into the house, and welcome her rejoicingly.
Christ makes a promise to all those who expect his coming in this manner, which is the greatest promise in all the Bible: upon his coming, Christ will ask all his servants who serve him and his bride church faithfully, and prepare his way through the services of their humility, to sit, be comforted, and dine, and the Bridegroom himself will serve them dressed as a servant. Do you understand what the Son of God says to you? He is a bridegroom and servant at one time. Our God is love and not a dictator. He gave his life for us on the cross, and is continuing his ministry in heaven. So, man, throw yourself to dust, destroy your pride, and be immediately a servant like God, for you are but a servant.
