Feel Odd?

Interesting how some of us, including myself, get a sense of spiritual urgency when news report recession, financial instability, natural catastrophic events, never mind world news. If Holy Scripture be true...these are but the beginnings of birth pangs. Also signaled by the down-side up morality of today. Right is wrong and wrong is right...how intensely sadly true. But these events and signs tell us that "spring is coming" and our long awaited Savior is near in His return. Do you believe that? Do you really believe it? If so, how ought we to live and what should be our state of mind of these things?

What feeling should I be experiencing...one that checks itself against the perceptions and opinions of some and mocking of others, perhaps? Sometimes that is the way of it with me, sadly. But then again, rejoice that God is faithful, keeps His word and Christ will return and our joy will be complete. Let me fix my eyes only upward and on Him who saves.
