The winter olympics will soon be coming to a close. It is always inspiring to see people who dedicate themselves to becoming the best in their sport. Years of rigorous discipline are spent training to land the triple salchow or shave milliseconds off the luge. If you were to observe an olympic athlete’s life, you would quick conclude that something is driving the way they live. A brief future event impacts almost every decision they make for years: what they eat, their sleep, how they spend their time, their priorities. The imminent return of Jesus Christ should visibly impact almost every aspect of your life. His return is infinitely more significant than a curling competition, a bobsled run, or even your plans for retirement. The return of Jesus Christ so significantly impacted the lives of the Thessalonian believers that it left an indelible impression on the lives of those who came into contact with them!
