TWILIGHT We stagger in the twilight gasping for air, Surrounded by the enemy’s malevolent glare; The attacks are sinister and diabolically planned, Overwhelming, relentless, and hard to withstand. We stumble in exhaustion – beaten and battered, Our sails withered, torn, and tattered; And just when we think we have reached the end, We’re shoved back down and it starts all over again. We prostrate ourselves and claim The Name, But the harassment continues just the same; The ruthlessness of evil is utterly atrocious, The more we persevere, the more it becomes ferocious. STILL, WE STAND – defiantly in accord, Knowing the battle ultimately belongs to our LORD!!! We will NOT give up, and we will NOT give in, Despite all the setbacks – we eventually WIN!!! We will jump with elation and euphorically rejoice, When we hear that Beautiful and Majestic Voice; Our Hope is imminent and worth the wait, We are destined for a calmer, more peaceful fate. We will ascend together just before the storm, To a Heavenly Paradise – serene and warm; The Rapture will free us from sorrow and loss, Salvation and Triumph were secured at the CROSS!!! We will soar forever above this world’s rubble, Never again to experience adversity or trouble; The cold hands of wickedness can never seize us, We’re under the Protection of our Lord, and Savior, JESUS!!!! Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah!!! Your BIC and pal, Humbly Lovely and true!! TR Great encouragement. Thanks TR and Arthur! The word "encouragement" is important to those that are weary or possibly still on the fence. They are still attainable for the Kingdom of God. Unfortunately, you can't encourage those that are vehemently against you and are trying to destroy you. They will be lost forever in the Lake of Fire. What a shame! Humbly Not casting our pearl of great price before swine! TR Great reminder TR: Matthew 7:6 Give not that which is holy unto the dogs, neither cast ye your pearls before swine, lest they trample them under their feet, and turn again and rend you. I have always loved this verse and used it often. Humbly
