march 4 : matthew 24

"At that time the sign of the Son of Man will appear in the sky, and all the nations of the earth will mourn. They will see the Son of Man coming on the clouds of the sky, with power and great glory. And he will send his angels with a loud trumpet call, and they will gather his elect from the four winds, from one end of the heavens to the other."
Man. This is nuts. If you think about what is being said here and you believe it to be truth you can't but marvel at God's glory. Think about it. One random day at a random time you will see as clear as lightning Jesus coming back. Everybody - Caucasian, Asian, Black, Hispanic, Christians, Muslims, Buddhists, Atheists, young, and old - will fall to their knees in response to the second coming of Christ. All will tremble. The source however of this trembling will be different between believers and all others. We will tremble with joy. A feeling when the the timing is just right, like when your bus comes right when you need it to. But others will tremble out of the uttermost fear. A question of why they hadn't believed will inevitably arise; why they had hated Jesus without reason. Guys, the day is coming. No one knows when this will happen except the one who planned it all from the very beginning - God. Lets be faithful in our walks as we use the Bible and prayer as our crutches.
