I have been waiting for 42 years now for Jesus
Christ to come for His church.  It seems like a
long time but, to Him, it is a few minutes but,
I truly believe He is coming so soon.
We need to be ready for a trumpet will 
sound now any time!

Preparations For The Trip Many preparations for the trip of a lifetime are all at present like a whirlwind within my head excitement of seeing loved ones we’d not seen in years for on this side they have for a long time been dead. Surely daddy will be there to meet us when we step down from that long sleek bird and momma and Kenneth and Orville to and the babies I was not able to bring to a live birth. Reunions galore, shouts of laughter and picnics to oh such joy there will be honey that’s awaiting me and you. Yet before this trip we still have much work to do talking and praying for others that they too might make reservations with Him and get through. Suddenly a voice from the cockpit says presently we are passing by the Milky Way on the left side of the plane there is Mars and Jupiter and now Heaven comes into sight as millions of miles we have gained. Funny though, there will be no bags to pack for this glorious celestial flight as the only things we can bring with us will be the souls we’ve won with a hard and prayerful fight. So now, all aboard you passengers just keep your eyes on Him and walk on in forgiveness and love and abstain from this wicked world’s sin. Written by: Marilyn S. Jennings September 7, 2008
