Coming Soon

I recently saw a photo of Santa on Facebook with a caption that said something like "I'll be coming soon!" Not everyone will be happy to hear that reminder. Some of us don't feel quite ready yet. We have presents to make, buy, or at least wrap. Children have more reason to be excited about Santa coming - if they've been good. Some children try to be especially good this time of year, and really, so should we.

There's Somebody else who, I've heard, is coming pretty soon, though the exact date of His re-arrival isn't known to any of us. Some of us feel ready for His return. The rest of us have some work left to do and some sins left to repent of. Children have more reason to be excited about the Second Coming. Being below the age of accountability, children age seven and younger have nothing to worry about. But no matter what age you are, we should all try to be good - perhaps especially good since we know that Somebody special is coming again soon.
