Near at the door but be patient .

Is Jesus coming really soon ?.On the one  hand , there are some Christians who are making plans and spending all their energies and efforts in the things of this world and there are others who are  only thinking to  flee to the mountains  . Who is right and who is wrong ?The answer is both ! let me explain this , in the book of James 5 :7" Be patient, then, brothers and sisters, until the Lord’s coming. See how the farmer waits for the land to yield its valuable crop, patiently waiting for the autumn and spring rains. ⁸ You too, be patient and stand firm, because the Lord’s coming is near." What is James trying to tell us in this text ? If the coming of the Lord is near why do we need to be patient ? what lessons can we learn from the farmers? How are we supposed to wait ? like the lady who wants to flee to the mountains ? or like the person who have their priorities in this life ? James is telling us , Jesus could come soon or it could be many years what you need to do is work as the farmer , the farmer just doesn't wait for the harvest , he works to get a harvest . If he only waits and doesn't work , there is no harvest .Let's keep ourselves busy in the Lord's vineyard ,and one day we will see that great harvest of revelation 14 ^"14And I looked, and behold a white cloud, and upon the cloud one sat like unto the Son of man, having on his head a golden crown, and in his hand a sharp sickle.
¹⁵And another angel came out of the temple, crying with a loud voice to him that sat on the cloud, Thrust in thy sickle, and reap: for the time is come for thee to reap; for the harvest of the earth is ripe.
¹⁶And he that sat on the cloud thrust in his sickle on the earth; and the earth was reaped." I long for that day when the son of man will trust his sickle and reap the ripe harvest .So let us live our lives for Jesus watching for his coming , preparing others , and keeping ourselves busy doing his will so if it is soon or in a thousand years , or whenever he comes , I want to hear the words " well done , good and faithful servant , Is that something you want to be a part of ? I pray that all of us can be part of that great multitude , the redeemed . Blessings .
