Enraptured

August 15, 2003 was the day of the first rapture,and I remember it clearly.

Naturally, time stopped. EVERYTHING stopped. There was a black out and it was eerie.

I was leaving work when the power went out. It was still light out, so it was only mildly interesting. Until we realized that fifty million people had no power. Whatever was going on was affecting the northeast United States. It closed the Detroit/Canadian border, no tunnel, no casinos, everything went quiet.

Nuclear power reactors, subway systems, even water were shut off. There were no traffic lights, no phones, no way to charge your cell. And it was HOT, in the high eighties, low nineties. Restaurants were serving food at ridiculous prices, hospitals were on generators, I'm tellin' ya, it was spooky !

 What the hell? I was not alone in wondering if it were an act of terrorism or the end of the world. Those of you who are too young to remember it, believe it. It might have been the end of days.

It lasted about 48 hours in my area, 72 hours in other areas, other states, even parts of Canada.

So, I was not even mildly annoyed by the doomsayers yesterday. "The End Is Coming at 6pm May 20, 2011"  Really?  I know that even Christ doesn't know when it's scheduled. "No one knows the hour or the day, except God the Father." (Matthew 24:36)

The point is, I'm not in the least concerned,since I know where I'm going. Another point I'm making is that I already have my heaven on earth. I've got it good, man ~


I've got it all.
