Waiting for Christ's return is more than mere waiting. It’s waiting in faith. It’s how the saints of the Old Testament were saved. They had to look forward and trust that God would be faithful to His promise to save them from their sins. In today’s devotional, Dr. Michael Youssef examines what it means to wait expectantly for Christ.
