SONS OF LIGHT

The Lord used a phrase, “A thief in the night;”

But this was often misquoted, making it a plight.

The Apostle Paul wrote to explain this phrase;

Now we can understand it, by God’s grace.

 

Paul wrote about people who lived in darkness;

These continue to live in sin and wickedness.

The Day of the Lord would come “as a thief in the night;”

To them, the Lord’s Return does not bring any delight.

 

Paul also wrote about those whom he called “sons of light;”

These are people who love the Lord with all their might.

It does not matter when the Lord makes His Return;

They look forward to His Second Coming from heaven.

 

Let us be challenged to live as sons of light;

May the Lord Jesus always be our great delight!

We need not fear the Return of our Saviour;

We live in His gracious love and His favour!
