Don't wait for the Second Coming, become it
When Christ says "I am the light of the world," these words are often read as a statement about himself alone. But they carry a continuation — a call for you to become a bearer of that light yourself. The question is not when it will arrive. The question is whether you are willing to stop waiting.
Gospel of the KingdomSvetozar Speaks
People tend to wait for change from the outside: salvation, signs, special events. But the light spoken of in the Gospel is not a future event — it is a present state, available the moment you turn your attention inward. True awakening is not something that happens to you from without. It is the recognition of what was already there.
