It's Almost Time!! ©

It's been a long work day; I turn the radio on in the truck just for noise in the background. I find myself working at trying to free up my mind, purge the day’s business events and unwind prior to getting home. Amazingly, the 20 minute ride seems to only take seconds before I hit the garage door opener to pull the vehicle in. I slowly get out of the truck, squeaking under the door before it closes all the way. I stand in the driveway with my back to the warm sun, just staring off into space, mind now blank of the business of the day; I feel the corners of my mouth slightly pointing upwards... The sun is slowly setting; and I catch myself staring into the Eastern sky, day dreaming of that Great Day coming; before finally walking in the door... I enter the house with a heavy heart for this ole world; yet waiting patiently for that Trump to sound, listening for the call of the Archangel and anticipating the change. The change I have now been awaiting for nearly 37 years, these old clothes no longer fit, for they are worn, tattered and torn. Yes, I am awaiting that change; longing to be placed into the purified new body and those new clothes that will be white as snow. I sit down to dinner with my loving wife, not much conversation; she knows my mind is off in another world. I help her clean up the dishes, take out the garbage and sit in the recliner for a little while. I went through the motions of reading the news paper, but didn't retain one single word. My heart and mind were on Heaven, nothing else was getting in this evening. I kissed the wife good night, and went off to study a little and spend a little time in prayer. As I pillow my head after spending time with my Dear Savior, I quickly doze off and find myself in the haze of what seems to be a dream, but is it? The haze begins to clear and I hear beautiful music, and see brilliant Light all around. I am ushered into a Throne room. This Glorious room is filled with the beautiful Light of Truth, who sits on the Throne, He shines with Glory and Majesty, and standing in His presence I have a peace that mortal words cannot articulate its depth. He has a wonderful warm smile on His face. A handsome, strong man sits next to the Light of Truth. The Righteous Prince sits on the right side of Truth. This wonderful God of Truth leans over to His Son, still smiling, He places His hand on His Son’s shoulder, and quietly says “it is almost time Son, you’ll soon go get Your Bride”. The Righteous Prince Jesus, the Christ looks into His Fathers eyes and said “I am ready Father – just say the word and I will go get her”. With a smile; The Resolute God of Truth & Creator of all that is, said "Soon Son, very soon", reassuring the Son that it is almost time. Then He sat back in His Throne and laid His hand on His Son's arm, as to reassure that it would be soon. I stand in awe, realizing the place that I am, I fall to my knees and bow before the throne, this Holy of places. Then just as quickly as it went away, the haze returned, and I was escorted out of the Throne Room. The kind person on my arm said, "now go and wait for your bridegroom, he will come to gather you up very soon. Go, be ready and watch for His return"! The haze becomes very thick, but wait there is a light shining again, as I stir to get a glimpse I come to the realization that it was a dream, and the light is the Morning Sun, peaking through the curtain into my sleepy eyes. Yes, it is yet another morning, time to rise and go to work. This morning however will be different, for I have been reminded He is coming very soon, so even at the work place, I must be about His business as well as my employers business. By letting those around me see the Glorious Light of the Father and His Precious Son! Yes, once again, I am going to look at that Eastern sky tonight and remember His prompt to watch and wait for His return. We need to be Sharing His Truth with all that will listen, and praying for His return and safe keeping of today's Saints. I am ready – are you? Watch, Listen, and Share!
