The end is near, the end is near!!

The end of what? The end of the good times, my friend! The end of it being easy to live for Jesus everyday! Everyone has hopefully heard of the rapture, but if you haven't...here it is:
The bible says that Jesus will come in a flash of a second and take up all of the people that are saved under Jesus' sweet blood to heaven. And then, the people who are left here on earth will go through a 7 year period of pretty much hell on earth! You can still be saved, but it will be very, very hard! If you want to buy food, gas, anything at all you have to have a "stamp" it's called the "mark of the beast" and if you take it, it's denying Jesus ultimately and you will not be able to enter heaven when Jesus comes for the very last time. You either take the mark or you get your head chopped off, you aren't allowed to read your bible or pray aloud, your not aloud to speak of Jesus' name. It will be a horrible time for those people who are left here on earth. But yay for the people who get to go to heaven!
Do you like scary movies where you don't know what's going to happen next? Well that's kinda how some people live right now, in fear of the rapture! But if you have your heart right with God, you won't have to worry about a thing. In the bible it says that no one knows the hour in which Jesus will be coming back! NOT EVEN HIM! The only person who knows is God. You don't have to be afraid of the rapture, just trust in God. The key to having a great relationship with God is to pray and read your bible everyday. Praying=talking You can't have a relationship with someone if you never talk to them, right? It's the same with God. If you want a relationship you have to talk to him and read his love letter to you!
So before it's too late, get right with God and have a relationship with him..he's waiting on you! :)

The four letter word that makes the world go 'round! :)

LOVE..

Love makes the world go around.  I like the word love because it can mean so many different things. It can mean family love, romance love, friendship love, love-hate, there are so many! But..the greatest love that has ever existed is when Jesus died for us. For you, for me, and for the lady checking out your groceries at Walmart. Jesus loved us so very much that he gave his own life! You'll hear people say "I'd die for my children/wife/husband" and they might, but Jesus really did die for us. That is the greatest love I can ever accept.
"To love him with all your heart, with all your understanding, and with all your strength, and to love your neighbor as yourself is more important than all burnt offerings and sacrifices." Mark 12:33-34

It says there that loving him with everything that you possibly have and loving your neighbor (everyone around you) is more important than in bible times when they killed their fattest cow! It's more important than ALL burnt offerings and sacrafices. So all God is asking of us is to love him back. It's like a love story..God loves you and he sent his son to die for you, and your sins and all he hopes for is for you to love him back and obey him! Wow..that's amazing to me. For someone to love me that much and care about me that much to send their only son to die for me, that's love right there. Better love than your parents, than your significant other, and better than your friends.

Also, once you've found yourself in Christ, he will lead you to your one true love here on earth! And together, you can find happiness out of loving God together!

So...love really does make the world go 'round :)
