This has been a hard, cold and wicked winter!  The winter of our discontent in that we are still here!  A springtime rapture would then be so appropriate!  Perhaps the first day of Spring or the 17th of May!  Perhaps Feb 2nd just before I turn 71 yrs old?!  Again, ever hopeful!  TR

Also continuing to ask the Lord for a quickening in our spirits prior to the rapture!  The bible speaks of trespasses and sins!  What are trespasses?!  TR

As a noun it is a violation social or moral rights. As a verb entering someone else’s property or land uninvited.

So Biblically we commit a trespass by breaking a moral (God law). My two cents :unsure:

I would prefer a sooner than May rapture — we are all so tired and showing signs of fatigue with the burden of evil that is growing. God is so gracious and loving. i have been faithful to watch the show the Chosen (it’s free) and it truly makes me desire to see Jesus even more…. :prayer-hands:

Spiritual trespasses speaks of being presumptuous in our spirits before the Lord!  TR

He was delivered up for our trespasses and raised for our justification. Ro 4:25

And the gift is not like the one man’s sin, because from one sin came the judgment, resulting in condemnation, but from many trespasses came the gift, resulting in justification. Ro 5:16

That God was in Christ, reconciling the world unto Himself, not imputing their trespasses unto them; and hath committed unto us the word of reconciliation. 2 Cor 5:19

We have redemption in Him through His blood, the forgiveness of our trespasses (sins), according to the riches of His grace. Eph 1:7

And you He made alive who were dead in trespasses and sins; in which  you once walked according to the course of this world, according to the prince of the power of the air, the spirit who now works in the sons of disobedience...in the lusts of our flesh and of the mind, and were by nature children of wrath...but God, Who is rich in mercy, because of His great Love with which He loved us, even when we were dead in trespasses, made us alive together, and made us sit together in the heavenly places in Christ Jesus...that in the ages to come He might show the exceeding riches of His grace in His kindness toward us in Christ Jesus. For by Grace you have been saved through faith and that not of yourselves, it is the Gift of God. Eph 2

The necessities of life are a constant!  How droll!  Can’t wait for the Lord’s full provision!  Praying as David did!  Not too much Lord, not too little!  TR

Are we there yet???  When we put on the glory the Lord has waiting for us!  A glorious departure, reunion, home coming, and eternal life in the very presence of God Almighty!  Peace, joy and love so pure and full!  The overwhelming sense that we are home, never more to be separated!  Ever looking forward to God's future acts of creation as well!  All the while knowing that our gratitude will always fall so short!  To Him be the glory forever and ever!!!  Delay no longer Lord as the Bride is ready and so anxious!  Be glorified Lord as time continues and men are still choosing their destinies and eternal fates!  Be glorified Lord for your love for us and the goodness of Your heart!  Be glorified Lord that You became human that we may relate and connect with You!  Be glorified in all the many roles You fulfill in your relationship with us, the work of your hands and heart!  Be glorified for every future glory which awaits and the growing love between us!  TR
