Time was when I had no love for the Holy Scriputres due to living an unholy life. The year was 1966, the month was January and the day the 19th. A beautiful day in my life dawned and set with my new life having begun that day and continues to this day. It is a joy to have the peace and knowledge of God in my life. A knowledge that salvation is to all who will receive it as a gift purchased by Jesus Christ for our sins. I remember the joy and fullness that entered my life as I prayed, asking God to forgive me of my sins.
Looking backward I wonder why I waited so long to ask Jesus into my heart. There certainly is nothing to be fearful of and new life to gain.
We look at the labor pains of this earth and know that our world is about to enter a very traumatic time such as has never been before. I believe that prior to the time of Great Tribulation we will be taken in the clouds with Jesus. At the end of the Tribulation we will come back with Jesus where the Battle of Armageddon will be fought. Immediately thereafter the millenial reign of Christ will be implemented upon this earth.
I find great solace in knowing that the smoke and turmoil will clear as Jesus comes back and sets up his everlasting kingdom. Its something to look forward to with great joy and expectation of a blissful eternity.
Make your plans to be on the side of Jesus. You won't regret it for a moment.
