Did you know that the Rapture is coming in two days?
There’s a billboard on Highway 52 stating that the Rapture is coming on May 21st, given it any notice? Does that billboard make you think, even on a small level- what if it is true? How does that make you feel?
What if you are that person that feels the need to do something quickly? “Earle, I’m going to drain the bank account, let’s go and see how much we have left before the Earth ends, we’ll go and splurge….” Earle continues to guess the answers to Jeapordy without phrasing it in the form of a question until Tina comes back, “Never mind, we’ll just go over to breakfast at IHOP again, I hear it’s buy one get one free.”
Stanley is driving past that billboard with his buddy on the way to work and casually says, “Well, that’s one thing that FINALLY will not make the price of a gallon of gas go up.”
Margaret finds the drive to do something good, “I’ve only got two days left to spread goodwill towards men, did I spread enough good will towards men? Do you think I treated my neighbor as myself, let me get my bible back out and read it again to make sure I understand it correctly. Honey, I’m out the door to spend the night at the mission, I’d better take advantage of this time and get some brownie points in.”
Steven is sitting at the bar watching the Sports Channel with his buddies, “Man I knew something was going on when the Football players and owners didn’t cut a deal.”
Jeremy taps his beautiful wife on the shoulder at 2am that night with a very raunchy suggestion in her ear. “What? Are you crazy?” She asks, mad that he woke her up but glad because the dream included Arnold Schwarzenager. She swats his hand and rolls away from him. He lays back and stares at the ceiling, “But the world is ending in two days.”
Finally all the children are doing what they should be doing knowing that the world is ending in 2 days – nothing, living their lives. Adopting God’s principles as a life mission all your life rather than when there’s only two days left is the best way to approach these days – with the love and faith of knowing that there’s paradise awaiting. What will you do with your last two days?
The Rapture - can it really make the world a better place for two days?
ReplyDeleteWait until they all go crazy on the 22nd, will they consider themselves staying here in purgatory since clearly they were not lifted ;)
