Come Jesus Come

September 14, 2026

Yesterday in church I heard a beautiful song, “Come Jesus Come.” As I listened, my heart was reminded of a wonderful promise: Jesus is coming again!

We live in a world filled with trouble, uncertainty, sorrow, and change. But as Christians, our hope is not in this world. Our hope is in Jesus Christ.

Are we looking for His coming? Are we longing to see Him? It is so easy to become busy with the cares of everyday life that we forget that this world is not our final home. Jesus promised that He would come again, and we can trust His Word.

We do not know the day or the hour, but we do know that He is coming. Until then, we should be ready, faithfully serving Him, telling others about Jesus, and looking forward with joy to the day when we will see our Savior face to face.

Come, Lord Jesus!

Titus 2:13 KJV
“Looking for that blessed hope, and the glorious appearing of the great God and our Saviour Jesus Christ;”

The Bonsai Tree

October 27, 2014

SOS Events had a booth at a County fair. In the booth next to ours was a Chinese man, who sold bonsai trees.
When things were slow, the SOS worker, asked the Chinese man,”How are things going?”
In broken English, the man replied, “Slow, I need to sell my Bonsai trees.”
“Which one would you like to sell?”
The Chinese man pointed to one of the most expensive of his bonsai trees.
“I will pray and ask God to bless you and that you will sell that bonsai tree,”
The next day, the SOS worker, came into the booth and the Chinese man with great excitement came over and ask her this question, “Who is your God and what is his name? After you left yesterday, a lady came by and bought that bonsai tree. Your God answers prayer.”
Thinking quickly, the SOS worker said, “His name is Jesus.”
“I want to know this Jesus,” the Chinese man replied.
Throughout the day when things were slow, The salvation story was explained to this Chinese man.
The next day, the man came over to the SOS booth and said, “I did it, I asked Jesus into my heart.”
SOS found a Chinese church in the man’s hometown so that his wife and mother could hear the gospel also.
What a joy to have the opportunity to lead someone from halfway around the world to the Lord Jesus Christ.

John 3:16
For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.
