True that! Looking forward to the flood of emotions the Rapture and meeting you all will evoke! Surprise, momentary disbelief, overwhelming feeling of unworthiness, then joy untold! Lastly, an all consuming love of God and for our spiritual family! TR Humbly, That is a beautiful poem. Why would you ever think that God was done with you? He has given you a gift of feeling, words, and sensitivity. Many of your poems could be turned into a song similar to David’s. This poem brought me to tears of joy … waiting for the train, leaning forward in line looking for the appearance of our glorious Savior … Humbly, you are a very talented poet! Your words are meaningful and intelligent. I, for one, would be quite disappointed if you stopped posting. Tammie, Yohanan, et al. Although I am not a small man, your words of encouragement have lowered me to the ground, brought my eyes to moistness, and have melted my heart to jelly. I truly believe my only natural gift from God in my life is to be an "Encourager". I don't have many other gifts that come easily or have the Holy Spirit's ability to touch others. So when you encourage me to continue on, it softens my demeanor and helps me to understand that I am not a total loss in life and that the Lord chooses to work through me in ways that I don't understand. So I try to go with the flow and let the Holy Spirit work where He will work and try to not hinder His progress. Sometimes, He chooses to remain silent and let me continue in faith without much result so that I can continue to trust Him in good times, in bad times, in joyous frivolity, and it quiet despair. He is always with me, with us, no matter what the illusion are that we see in front of us. The perfect timelines ... The perfect numerical calculations … The prophetic shadows of Daniel, Ezekiel, Isaiah, Revelation, etc. falling all around us… We thought we would be Raptured by now -- yet we are still here … Suffering physical, emotional, and financial hardships … Longing to be Raptured home again and removed from this unforgiving earth … We have been watching for so long … Many of us have seen the “Signs of the Times” build to a crescendo in these “Times of the Signs”… Are we not experiencing the dreams and visions that Joel predicted? “Peace and Safety” is the catch-phrase of the international diplomatic community … The “Peace Treaty” is being prepared behind the scenes … The End Time players are on stage and the curtain is about ready to be raised … Yet to our utter dismay we are still here… Ah, but there’s the rub … Not for much longer!!! This chaotic world can’t hold together much longer … The winds of change are moving too fast … The voracious thirst for power is too prominent … The Powers That Be (PTB) think they are on the cusp of victory when in reality they are on the brink of defeat and destruction! The Church Age is about to end to our delight and their bewilderment. Our bags are packed … There is nothing here that causes a desire to remain …We want, we desire, and we are prepared to go home!!! Confusion runs rampant … Fear of the impending future is shared by believers and nonbelievers ... Yet there is no repentance from the unbelievers to our TRUE GOD… The populace is drinking, marrying, and giving in marriage … The world has determined that there is no salvation through Jesus Christ and that all roads lead to Heaven … The false gods are promulgating their end-time deceit… We are now preparing for the Feast Days in Fall … Rosh Hashana is a Jewish idiom for "a day that nobody knows" … It is the PERFECT TIME for Jesus to return on a day that “we think not”… I pray that it is NOW, Lord, not “soon”. WE ARE READY!! Even so Lord, come quickly (NOW)!!! A humble prayer quietly issued from a servant who falls so short of the mark and the standard that You have set for me, Humbly Irrelevant Ditto HI! All fall short! But you constantly remind us where to go, to HIM! There is no greater gift IMHO, than to listen when He speaks! And you listen to His heart! TR
:rose: :prayer-hands: Thank you!
