Todd, I’m sorry to hear about your dear aunt. Take comfort, believers are never truly alone ... she had angel(s) by her side in the hospital room with her before he/(they) escorted her up to heaven! And you and your loved ones will be reunited with her VERY soon! i'm sorry Todd that family was not able to be with your Aunt. being together in God's presence really is our blessed hope. Tom has the greatest joy he ever had right now. i read in a local paper about the woman that Arthur mentioned. It was shameful what happened to her, cruel to keep her from the only people who knew how to communicate with her. something about what is going on is the degree that separation is being pushed on the population. what is death? its a separation that takes place. Adam and Eve were removed from living in the garden, physical death came and they and their offspring were sentenced to the separation of spirit from body at some point in time. Only a few out of all earth's population will be granted an exception - Enoch, Elijah, those alive at the time of the rapture who are in Christ. Satan comes to do what, to steal, to kill, to destroy. he separates families, separates people from God, separate is his specialty. God will separate him forever from the redeemed and from the presence of God. Fear and isolationism seem to be the call of the day! We just need to keep taking God's pulse prophetically. I nominate Tammie to go up there and takes God's pulse and then report back to us. By reason of her extensive medical background of course. There might be some risk involved, but we all have to make certain sacrifices! Wanna be our sacrificial medical lamb?! TR Absolutely! I am all in! Wait! I know Jesus has a glorified body, touchable, etc... and we all know God the Father is full of perfect love that cast out all fear, but as to God having an actual beating heart .... He is Spirit! Might be a useless pursuit to locate a pulse .... on a Spirit being, just saying :wacko: But to. Be fair, I game to try! :yahoo: Anything to get to heaven. Indeed leaning on this everlasting arms! TR
Father, you are totally aware of this craziness before us, we trust you for the strength, wisdom, and guidance to move thru what is left of our human days on your earth. Lord, your timing is perfect, as Gideon, Joshua, David, Paul, and countless others have laid their pleas and petitions before you ... we, your watching remnant, come boldly before the throne of Grace and earnestly plead that you swiftly, in a twinkle of an eye, bring the Bride home to our heavenly abode prepared for us by the Bridegroom. May the dead in Christ rise and I cry out to you that we who are alive and remain, be gathered up to meet our Savior in the clothes, now Father, not our will but Yours... we Love you Lord and bow before your omniscience. :prayer-hands:
