Thank You For The Delay
I was just thinking about Jesus,
And how many think He's delayed.
Then I thought how I'm thankful
For having to wait all these days.
You see, if He came years ago
I'd be left behind, I know.
So think of that next time
You start thinking He's slow.
Many more will come to Christ
Before the rapture, I know I'm right.
When you have His heart
You know it's not falling apart.
It's falling into place!
He will come again - it's a guarantee.
Just pray for the strength to endure.
He'll give it to you - I'm sure.
God has a perfect plan
Above the ways of man.
God will come again & we will be
Forever in His presence in the heavenlies.
About this poem
Inspired by my impatient waiting for the rapture and the urgent desire to be more like God which His will for everyone past, present, and future.
