The prophecy that we'd all be raptured or that the world would end yesterday obviously didn't pan out. But I was thinking about the word rapture. It means captivated, excited, happy. And yet as Christians how often are we that about Christ's return? We think of all we need to do here on earth, and the cares of this life pile up and over power. I'm learning to be in raptures about Jesus. That's what He wants. And even if we don't meet Jesus in the clouds of thousand years more, I'll still be in raptures, knowing that I love Him and He loves me, and I'll get to be with Him for eternity(not rhyme intended)....
And too, knowing that Jesus is coming back eventually puts the fear of God in me to be a bolder witness to those that don't believe yet. I'm praying for them.
