Malachi 3

16 Then they that feared the Lord spake often one to another: and the Lord hearkened, and heard it, and a book of remembrance was written before him for them that feared the Lord, and that thought upon his name.

Commune with the righteous people. This goes along with, Where ever two or three are gathered in my name...

17 And they shall be mine, saith the Lord of hosts, in that day when I make up my jewels; and I will spare them, as a man spareth his own son that serveth him.


This is a comfort. When I think about the second coming I usually worry about what we might have to live through to get there. It's scary.

I don't remember when it was that I stopped fearing the second coming... maybe after realizing how much hell this life seemed to be and how much I seemed to have gone through made any kind of signs of the times that the second coming was close seem more thrilling and glad of heart than fear.

It is thrilling, but it's also still scary for me. I like to be in control of everything so of course that's a fear ;)
