Beautiful Defect April 2019


​
For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first: Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord.
1 Thessalonians 4:16-17 KJV



And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain; for the former things are passed away.
Revelation 21:4 KJV


Hopefully,

Susan

"For God so loved the world that he gave his only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have everlasting life."
John 3:16

checking out--
​the emperor’s clothes
flutter on the line


Alice
 
I must go,
she said, as she closed
the electric book.
Down is up and up is nowhere.
 
It is time,
she said, as she climbed down
from her wobbly throne.
It waits for no one.
 
I will look to the east,
she said, as she remembered
the line from the song,
for the sunrise.
 
One can never be lost when one looks for the sun…

down is up & black is white & the emperor has no clothes



"It will seem like all hell has broken loose - sun, moon, stars, earth, sea, in an uproar and everyone all over the world in a panic, the wind knocked out of them by the threat of doom, the powers-that-be quaking."
Luke 21:25 MSG




Are we there yet?

I don't know, but the signs are there.

What to do?

Nothing.

How long?

Don't know.

What then?


Look for the little man with the sign, like Waldo hidden in a crowd, He is there.


And when you find him you answer the question.


Who is this Jesus?  


Liar

Lunatic

Lord


Where do You put your X?
