I’ve asked many people in the past and even recently, “How are you doing?”. Most tell me they are fine or OK but are they really? We get so used to giving people quick answers to questions like this when deep down we really aren’t doing as well as we try to make it seem. Most people don’t know each other very well these days so an answer like this is just accepted and “no harm, no foul”. But what about you?
Sometimes I have expressed exactly how I feel and people look at me like something is growing out of my ear. If we actually are honest with each other would that make a difference in the world? Maybe. So, are you really okay?
God loves you and He cares about you. It doesn’t matter to Him if you are feeling down or if you are on top of the world. He will always be there with you either way. IF you have given your heart to Him and live by that decision every day then your life can be OK every day. Wake up by giving Him praise for letting you have another day to serve Him. Life is too short to look at things the way that the world looks at them. Most of the world seems to think that the sun rotates around them and the whole world is their oyster.
What good is having the whole world today, right now, and then spending eternity in hell? Have you ever considered how long that is? Most of us won’t live for one hundred years and that’s not even equivalent to the blink of your eye when compared to eternity. Even the lifetimes of Noah and Adam don’t count much when compared to eternity and both of them lived for more than 900 years!
I pray that everyone who reads this will seek Jesus to be their Savior soon because we are living at the edge of the Tribulation.
For the mountains shall depart, and the hills be removed; but my kindness shall not depart from thee, neither shall the covenant of my peace be removed, saith the LORD that hath mercy on thee.
Isaiah 54:10 KJV

The whole world is waiting for something to happen. But…what is it waiting for? It isn’t a “what”, it is Who! There is only one more event that is going to get the attention of the world and that will be the return of Jesus to take His Bride, the Church, home. Can you imagine? All of the Christians of two thousand years coming out of their tombs, wherever they may be, in their resurrection bodies! That is going to be a huge crowd of people to meet Jesus in the air! Almost at the same moment, the Christians who are alive on that day and time will be changed and they will meet Him as well.
To the world’s scientists and many who do not believe in Jesus, this day is a fairytale. It is just some mythical story from an old book. But on that day when it happens…everyone who has heard of this story will see the proof before their eyes. Some will mourn because they didn’t go with their friends and family who might have disappeared in front of them. Many more people in the world will be angry and mournful because of the consequences of all of the disappearances. The car wrecks and planes crashing and many other things that happened because of those who left this world for a better one.
Many young children will be missing as well, especially infants and those who were about to be born but were taken back to heaven. Yes, they were innocent of sin and they will be taken. Life will change drastically for the world after this day and it won’t be better. If you’ve ever read about the days of tribulation mentioned in the book of Revelation, this is when it will begin.
I pray that anyone who has questions about their salvation or even if they are saved through Jesus, please seek Him in prayer and through the gospels in the New Testament. Don’t wait until that day comes because we don’t know how much longer we have. I may not be alive when this happens. You may not be alive tomorrow, no one is guaranteed a certain number of years. Make sure of your salvation soon.
