Bridge Over Troubled Water

The first thing I thought about when I heard the news about the collapsing of the bridge in Minneapolis, was of Jesus describing to his disciples what things would be like in the last days. He warned that there would be "wars and rumors of wars" as well as calamaties and disasters. Yesterday was a disaster. Katrina was a disaster. The tsunami was a disaster. 9/11 was a disaster. That's four different episodes within six years. That's nearly one disaster a year. Three of those happened in the United States. God is still trying to get somebody's attention. It's worrisome to me to know that I am living in the last days. It saddens me to see a world that has gone so totally against God. All the Biblical prophesies for Christ's return have been fulfilled. We have to be ready. We have to be ready to meet Him face to face.
