Some faithful Adventists feel a deep sense of dread when they think about end-times and “the time of trouble.” The same Bible that taught us to believe in a “time of trouble” also shows us how to deepen our trust in the Saviour whose coming is “the blessed hope.” Here are some helpful suggestions that will bring reassurance to you and all others who await this crucial moment in earth’s history, just prior to the glorious return of our Saviour, Jesus Christ.—Editors.
- First things first: Live today—and not in the future. Make your commitment to God every day and do not live in dread and fear, imagining the details of dark times.
- Spend quality time in your friendship with Jesus every day.
- Don’t postpone important decisions for Jesus.
- Remember the big picture: God loves you, and as your Creator and Saviour He gave everything so that you can spend eternity with Him. He is completely on your side.
- Claim His joy now. Practice faith and trust in Him every day—beginning with the small daily decisions that shape our days and lives.
- Keep saying “Yes” to Jesus—every day, every moment.
- Trust that “He who began a good work in you will carry it on to completion until the day of Christ Jesus” (Phil. 1:6, NIV).
