We often read Jesus' warnings, these apocalyptic texts, and tend to either have fear or bring fear on who hears them. But Jesus seems to be asking for something different from that. We know that he never has much time for fear as a tool. He is always chastising the fearful, even while he is gentle with the doubters.

While he sometimes seems to be saying "live in the moment," here, he argues that we need to take the long view. This isn't all that there is. There is more to come, a world you can barely imagine and can only glimpse from afar right now. Whatever this might be for you right now, this doesn't define who you are and who you will be.
