Patiently Waiting Poem by Lubinda Lubinda

For thousands of years
we've been preaching
and believing
that Christ would someday
come back
despite the fact that:
most of us living today
weren't even at the scene
where the disciples had been
when He went away!
but we still hold fast
to the promise
that had been given
long ago!

And, we lie in wait,
in anticipation
and lots of expectation
because, we believe
we're the terminal generation
so, we wait with gaited breath
for the glorious day
when we shall depart
from the earth
when our Saviour will come
and whisk us away
from the earth
for it was said:
'In the twinkling of the eye...'
we'll wave goodbye
to this world!
and there's gonna be
a meeting in the air!

Now, some may even mock us
because, they find it ridiculous
while others, will stop and stare
any they will even say:
'see what a fool Christianity
makes of otherwise brilliant man! '
and, we'll just smile and say:
well, the mystery is hidden
in the days of Lot and Noah
and till this day,
no one knows the day
nor the hour
of Christ's return!
so we'd in rather
make preparation
for His return!
than be caught unaware
because we believe
He's coming back again!
