Life
goes on, and on, day in, day out.
In
the momentum of life, we experience little more than hiccups that are times of great
joy and mourning. That is the big
picture of life’s simplicity and where busyness offsets everything not
fulfilling instant tangible needs.
There
is more for our being to transcend than our obvious physical, emotional, and intellectual
view of life. Our life as spiritual beings
does allow us to see and hear and feel what is not tangible—but of our spirit
and of God’s Spirit. Our mind can
ignore, disregard what our spirit hears and yearns for. This is how we ignore Jesus’ explanation of
the future and His example of a previous event in humankind’s history.
Jesus, warns us, that just as it was, “in the days before the flood, people were
eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, up to the day Noah
entered the ark; and they knew nothing about what would happen until the flood
came and took them all away.
That
is how it will be at the coming of the Son of Man. Two men will be in the
field; one will be taken and the other left. Two women will be grinding with a
hand mill; one will be taken and the other left.
Therefore
keep watch, because you do not know on what day your Lord will come.” ~ Matthew 24:38-42
“Therefore”
… we are warned by Jesus, it seems his words of kindness and love are ignored,
He had to be blunt. So, in our ho-hum day to day life, keep watch,
listen in your spirit, listen to God’s Spirit calling you to him and he will be
sending angles when He sounds the trumpet for the end of time as we know it.
If, if, you are
attentive to God you will hear the trumpet and the wings of angels.
That is, unless your spiritual ears are only attentive to this
world’s noise.
Listening
for the trumpet’s everlasting
song of joy,
Owen <><
