Come, Thou Long-Expected Jesus

Come, Thou Long-Expected Jesus

In 1744, Charles Wesley composed what has become one of my favorite Advent hymns, called, “Come, Thou Long-Expected Jesus.” It recounts Israel’s anticipation for their long-awaited Messiah — the One who would bring freedom, consolation, and strength to their nation. This wait was not easy. Yet their hope was not put to shame, because God is faithful. Christ came, and exceeded all of their expectations, by bringing salvation not only to Israel, but also to all humanity. Hoping in God is never disappointing. Our situations and hearts may take time to transform, but God’s Word will always come to fruition.
So friend, when situations trigger a sense of hopelessness in you, hold unswervingly to our living hope who is Christ. Whenever you’re fatigued by the waiting, remember the faithfulness of God to the Israelites, displayed in the coming of Christ. As we wait together for Christ’s second coming and for situations to change for the better, let us ask Christ to reign in our hearts so that we might serve Him in everything we do in our nation. Come, Lord Jesus, come.
