There is an ole saying that I have heard and repeated a number of times in my life !!! It goes like this ::

Sometimes “The Truth Hurts” !!!

Why is that,,,, we are taught to always tell the truth, so why would it hurt us ??? It is usually because we have done something wrong and don’t want to admit it or hid it !!! We know that if we confess the truth, it is going to expose us of what we did or how we acted !! It will open us up to face the consequences !!!

Well there is a book out there that is full of truth and nothing but the truth, if we take the time to read it !!! Yes, you are correct,,, It is the one and only Bible inspired by God !!! Whether you want to believe it, does not change the truth is holds !!

I was reading in Psalms the other day and one of these “Truths” hit me head on !!!

Psalm 30:6-7 NLT

[6] When I was prosperous, I said, “Nothing can stop me now!” [7] Your favor, O LORD, made me as secure as a mountain. Then you turned away from me, and I was shattered.

That hit the nail right on the head- I can even remember,,, when all was excellent and good in my life,,, thinking,,, I am doing great and on a roll,,, what can hinder me,,, I am ahead of the game !!!

Well God was blessing me and when I turned away from him and glorified myself as the Master of my Universe he decided it was time to get my attention !!! He let me bask in my spender and deception for a time,,, all the time convicting me to turn from my harmful ways,,, but I was absorbed in my moment and didn’t want to change !!!

Well when he turned from me,,, I was completely shattered !!! Cancer, below knee leg amputation, lose of work and divorce,,, all in less than a year- He definitely got my attention back, and I understood exactly what was going on !!!

Now looking back on that time,,, I am really thankful that he loved me enough to take the time !!! Although I was suffering,,, he was always with me and comforted me- I could not have made it through without him always by my side !!! Thank You, Jesus, for loving me that much !!!

So the moral to this story is :

If you want to have an understanding of the consequences you may face, in the future, for the lies and deceptions you may be living now,,, you might want to check the Bible !!!

There are no lies or deceptions in the Bible ,,, only Truth !!!

God Bless Everyone

What do I see when I look at all that is happening around the world ??? I see end times prophecies happening every day !!! Let’s just look at one from Romans Chapter 1 in the Bible:

^{Romans 1:28-32}  Furthermore, just as they did not think it worthwhile to retain the knowledge of God, so God gave them over to a depraved mind, so that they do what ought not to be done. ²⁹ They have become filled with every kind of wickedness, evil, greed and depravity. They are full of envy, murder, strife, deceit and malice. They are gossips, ³⁰ slanderers, God-haters, insolent, arrogant and boastful; they invent ways of doing evil; they disobey their parents; ³¹ they have no understanding, no fidelity, no love, no mercy. ³² Although they know God’s righteous decree that those who do such things deserve death, they not only continue to do these very things but also approve of those who practice them.

Look around and open your eyes,,, if you are not seeing all the chaos and witnessing the surrounding evil each day ,,, then you must be living on a different planet than I am !!!

^{Matthew24: 4-8} Jesus answered: “Watch out that no one deceives you. ⁵ For many will come in my name, claiming, ‘I am the Messiah,’ and will deceive many. ⁶ You will hear of wars and rumors of wars, but see to it that you are not alarmed. Such things must happen, but the end is still to come. ⁷ Nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom. There will be famines and earthquakes in various places. ⁸ All these are the beginning of birth pains.

Sound Familiar in present day ???

Well, I was talking to my buddy about all this the other day, and he said ,,, it is true things are a mess, but the world has been here before,,,, world wars, famines, pandemics and chaos- Its just another part of the evolution of things !!!

Well here is the one thing that is different this time around !!! There has been one major piece of the puzzle missing during all these other times of world evolution and chaos ,,,,, The Nation of Israel !!! That happened in May 1948 !!! That was the missing piece to the prophetic clock that, many believe, started the end time clock ticking down to the return of Jesus !!!

While I do not have a clue as to when exactly he will return, I do believe that the next big world changing event will be the Rapture !!! Just experiencing all the Biblical prophecies that are proving true in our present lifetime,,, I firmly believe that there are people alive today that will witness the Rapture event, either by being taken up to heaven or left behind here on earth !!!

I am here to tell you,,, you don’t want to be left behind !!!

Ask Jesus into your heart today and seal your fate in heaven for eternity ,,,, NO ONE knows about tomorrow except God himself !!!

God Bless Your Day !!!!
