For the Lord himself will come down from heaven with a commanding shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trumpet call of God. First, the believers who have died will rise from their graves. Then, together with them, we who are still alive and remain on the earth will be caught up in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air. Then we will be with the Lord forever.
- 1 Thessalonians 4:16-17

Jesus, Thank You for this amazing glimpse into Your second coming! You have given Your people abundant hope regarding the days to come. Help me to live in hopeful anticipation of Your imminent return. Amen.
