God gives us comfort and assurance that He will come to us and lavish us with His abundant care. We can trust in Him and rejoice because He is bringing us a Kingdom. We who are His disciples now have our lives directed by working to bring forth this Kingdom in our world, and one day, we will enter it.
It is a Kingdom that is ours when we commit our lives to the Cross, by which we have been made new. At this time of year when we the people of the United States celebrate our freedom, we Christians recall, as Paul writes in stirring words in Galatians 6, the glorious freedom won for us in the Cross of Christ.
