Lord even though I am still yet a sinner and often grieve your heart, I wanted to take the time to thank you Lord for my salvation and for the gracious gift of the Rapture!

Yes Lord, even before it has transpired, being aware that at any given moment You could sound the trumpet.  Knowing in my heart that I am neither worthy nor deserving!

Yet the glories of Your heart abound in this harpozo that you have so eloquently conceived.  I thank you on behalf of all the saints that will be ushered into Your glorious presence!

Most important, I thank you Lord personally!  From the depths of my being and with every fiber of my soul I again ask, who am I Lord?!  Who am I that I would be numbered with the likes of so many exalted saints, past and present!

Let my heart in this matter be in line with Yours Lord!  That you alone may be glorified, deserving of all honor, power and glory forvermore!  It is with fear and trembling that I offer the cries of my heart!

Mine only glory is that You call me Yours!

:amen:  The Lord is so good and merciful ... I love this passage ... we can come boldly before the throne of grace with our petitions.

 

Hebrews 4:14-16

Seeing then that we have a great high priest, that is passed into the heavens, Jesus the Son of God, let us hold fast our profession.

For we have not an high priest which cannot be touched with the feeling of our infirmities; but was in all points tempted like as we are, yet without sin.

Let us therefore come boldly unto the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy, and find grace to help in time of need.

Speaking of the Rapture, seems to me that it goes without saying the only thing from Earth found in Heaven, shall be us!

Certainly we are in the Earth, but not of it.  For we are the work and labor of the Lord's hands and heart!  And this is what makes each regenerated soul soooo precious and special!

Though I have often pointed out the shortcomings of men, my despair of humanity is tempered by the work of the Holy Spirit in all believers!

Simply stated, I love all who love the Lord!
