Hope Maketh Not Ashamed
I've been thinking about the time between Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur. One is the Jewish New Year and the other is The Day of Atonement. Jewish legend says that during this period God looks down on the Earth and considers the Jewish people. I was thinking this would be a good time for the Rapture to take place. The Bible clearly says we are not to know the hour or the day, but the times and the seasons. As I focused on the Rapture coming, God then blessed with a desire for Christ's return and a greater assurance of my faith. After Rosh Hashanah came I was a little anxious. Could I possible be left behind? God led me to various Scriptures for assurance. Then God gave me a promise that was God's answer to the question, why should I let you into Heaven? The answer is the promise, God loved me and gave His beloved Son for me. I've God's Word on it. Oh, what Great joy. Oh, what Great love. Oh, what Great assurance. What a great Promise.
