Matthew 24
Several events this week gave me pause, since the fulfil prophecy. First the scheduled day of rapture that did not come to pass. Only Jesus knows the day of His coming. This false prophet deceived many good people. Next, Mr. Obama's proposals against the country of Israel definitely make us Israel's enemy. More tornadoes and more news of war all point to His coming.
But this does not inspire fear. Jesus told us to be not troubled. Dismay and fear are tools of the evil one. Peace, hope, and joy are the ways of God. The Lord is in control and will send guidance that will allow our best possible outcome. Extreme preparations are not called for. Although we are counseled to prepare our houses physically with food, clothing, and fuel, it is not desirable to overreact. Be optimistic. Live righteously. Turn unto Christ. Stand in holy places. Treasure up His word. Look forward to the future. Do not set the heart on things of this world. It will be a wonderful day.

Reading the scriptures and keeping this journal are my delight. I do not keep an online journal to preach to anyone but myself. I like this format, because I can add pictures and correct my writing easier. If you enjoy reading it, I am happy. If you feel offended, please, realize it is not my intention to offend but to teach myself. No negative comments will not be published.
