You know I think about the end of times a lot. It is kind of obsessive at this point. I wonder where I will be at the exact moment when Jesus comes back to take what is rightfully his. Will I be blessed to be holding my children's hands alongside my husband or will my time here on this wasteland already been done with? I don't wonder so much about what happens after that. I know my treasures in Heaven have already been planted for me and I know just being be my Saviour's side is all the riches I need. I ponder more about how long God will allow non-believer's to continue to disgrace all that He has given us? I actually think that is isn't the point of when God has judged each person but when each person has made their final judgement about God. I like to think of myself as a truly loving Christian. I am not a fire and brimstone kind of gal. I don't believe in judgement or the crucifying of others. I give that to some ONE who is much more powerful than I. I try to live each day honestly loving every single one who I come across. Of course I have my normal human reactions to the person who cuts me off on the highway and the customer who is so absolutely rude to me but damnation I don't touch. I am amazed by how many people are ready to damn other people because of their sexual immorality or because of their past convictions. Isn't a sin a sin? While there are many whom I don't understand I must believe that if my God is an all consuming loving God then He loves the next person as equally as He loves me. I will let Him be in charge of the final days of judgement. I am surprised though that God still holds out for us. Each day is one more day of hope and promise He gives us to make that most important and final decision. Yet daily I see people just throw it completely away. I become outraged and embarrassed for the typical human way of thinking. I am amazed how quickly people's way of thinking moves and bends to help justify their own evil ways. I am appalled how quickly people deny the existence of God to help them deny their own weakness. Our God is a righteous God who wants nothing more than to anoint all of His children into the kingdom of Heaven. We are His children. Unfortunately just like our family and friends daily disappoint us so His children continue to fail Him. What can we do? What can I do? In this huge big world full of hate, destruction, despair, and poverty how do we convince people in the light of Jesus? We pray and we shout on the rooftops the love we have for our God. We teach our children how to walk with faith instead of doubt. We become true examples of Jesus' teachings in the Bible and most importantly we read His Word with a fervent desire so at that one moment when one comes to ask for direction we have the best resource available. How much is enough? When shall our Father shout to the ends of the world and announce "Today is the day! Now it is done."? Do not let another day of judgement or complacency pass you by. God bless to all of my faithful friends and followers.
Revelation 3:7-13
These are the words of him who is holy and true, who holds the key of David.
What he opens no one can shut, and what he shuts no one can open. I know your deeds.
See, I have placed before you an open door that no one can shut. I know that you have little strength, yet you have kept my word and have not denied my name. I will make those who are of the synagogue of Satan, who claim to be Jews though they are not, but are liars—I will make them come and fall down at your feet and acknowledge that I have loved you.
Since you have kept my command to endure patiently, I will also keep you from the hour of trial that is going to come upon the whole world to test those who live on the earth.
I am coming soon. Hold on to what you have, so that no one will take your crown.
Him who overcomes I will make a pillar in the temple of my God. Never again will he leave it.
I will write on him the name of my God and the name of the city of my God, the new Jerusalem, which is coming down out of heaven from my God; and I will also write on him my new name. He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches.
