TR, brother you might be onto something, our faith is stronger in adversity. We always quote the end of this verse but just look what Jesus said in verse one...

John 14:1-3 “Let not your hearts be troubled. Believe in God; believe also in me. In my Father’s house are many rooms. If it were not so, would I have told you that I go to prepare a place for you? And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again and will take you to myself, that where I am you may be also.“

A verse that goes around my head a lot lately is Philippians 4:7 “And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.”

Mostly “the peace of God is with you and believe in God, believer also in me”...over and over in my head, I’ve wondered at this all week. There is a great sense of calm. Do you also feel like tilting your head ever so slightly to hear better, like your spirit is listening intently for something and there is a sense of wait for it, wait for it....

praying it is so :prayer-hands:

Yes Geri7 , I've also pondered the prospect of a universal cloud cover at the time of the Rapture.  I suppose it could happen, as the Word tells us that we shall all meet Him in the clouds. But would that really be necessary.

One, depending on where we lived on the Earth and given an adequate height we could all just simply be angled in our trajectory.

Two, couldn't they be clouds of glory hidden from those left behind?!  As to this quietness that I've spoken of, perhaps this will be a last opportunity for us to gather rewards?!
