At the Last Trump

There has not been a blog written here in a long time, but that is because I have not really felt the urge to write, that is until now. I really have something I have to share with everyone, especially as this world is falling to pieces all around. Friends I want you to know that you do have hope. This hope cannot be found in anything this world has to offer, but instead in what Jesus has to offer. Right now the swine flu is in full swing, and people are getting sick from it left and right. Now I know I live kind of far away from all of that, but what do I do if it hits me? So many people are afraid, and maybe you are right now yourself. I know at first I was afraid too. It's kind of hard to not be afraid when you hear it being splashed all over the internet and the news. Every time I get onto MSN it is another update on the swine flu, and even some of my friends are worried that they might have it. I know, things look pretty black right now for this world, yet we have a friend who promised us that they would get black, but He promised us this so that we would not be worried. Fear and worry does not help us in this life. Let's take hold of the One who holds this world in place. Let's go to Him with our worries, and friends, I promise you that He will calm your fears and give you the assurance that you are so desperately seeking. Friends, read your Bible! There is no better time to get in touch with the King of the universe than now. Please, please, get to know Jesus, He loves you, and He wants to be with you. Jesus says "In this world you will have trouble, but take heart, I have overcome the world." Right now we are having trouble. There is the swine flu, economic crisis, families breaking apart, people killing each other, and wars. We have had terrible earth quakes. I believe it is time that we wake up, and come to Jesus, while there is still time! Go to Him friend, there is hope for you, there is hope for me to! Let's hang on to Him, because He promises to bring us through this time of trouble. There is a verse that has really helped me in my fear of death and worry:

Romans 8: 31What, then, shall we say in response to this? If God is for us, who can be against us? 32He who did not spare his own Son, but gave him up for us all—how will he not also, along with him, graciously give us all things? 33Who will bring any charge against those whom God has chosen? It is God who justifies. 34Who is he that condemns? Christ Jesus, who died—more than that, who was raised to life—is at the right hand of God and is also interceding for us. 35Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? Shall trouble or hardship or persecution or famine or nakedness or danger or sword? 36As it is written:
"For your sake we face death all day long;
we are considered as sheep to be slaughtered."l]" class="footnote">[l] 37No, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him who loved us. 38For I am convinced that neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons,m]" class="footnote">[m] neither the present nor the future, nor any powers, 39neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord."

Take that fear and death! Jesus is king, and nothing can pull us apart from Him or His love for us. Don't be afraid of what's to come, Jesus is already there! He's also in the future too! He's the Alpha and Omega! Don't be afraid. Jesus promised us in Matthew:

Mat 28:19

Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit,
Mat 28:20

teaching them to observe all that I have commanded you. And behold, I am with you always, to the end of the age."
He who testifies to these things says, "Surely I am coming soon." Amen. Come, Lord Jesus!

Don't worry friend, Jesus is with you, always, to the end of the age, turn to Him now and ask for His peace that passes all understanding, and ask for His yoke, because it is easy and His burden is light. He will come and rescue us, let's not loose heart:)


Rev 22:20
