While the world around us becomes obsessed with what's "in stores,” the Christian Church turns its attention to what God has "in store" for the world and its people. By revealing to us everything about the future that he wants us to know, God also helps us get ready for what he has planned. This week we focus on Christ's rule as king, a rule that is somewhat confusing. During his life on earth and during the last days of this world, his rule is gentle and submissive. However, on the last day, he will surely trample his enemies. May we always welcome him as our king now so that we don't get trampled by him later.
