What I have been doing!
It’s been a while, but sometimes its nice to sit back and listen, to watch the Lord at work, not only in my own life and walk but to witness it first hand in my father. That is what I have been doing, watching, learning, thinking, and praying. I often find myself wondering if such situations are intended by the Lord to see how my reaction will be and not so much what I do with the situation, if that makes any sense at all. Its been a trying time for him, one that I hope never to experience and yet to see him grow every day, to not step away from the Way the Truth the Life but to embrace it, yes friends there is something to be said for that. How glorious and wonderful our Savior is! The Lord is working in all of us. It is apparent by what my eyes have witnessed. The wonderful work of all of you, the many prayers, the comments on my fathers blog, and his over all reaction has been wonderful and I praise Jesus for it.
1 Thessalonians 4:13-18 (New International Version)
The Coming of the Lord
Brothers, we do not want you to be ignorant about those who fall asleep, or to grieve like the rest of men, who have no hope. We believe that Jesus died and rose again and so we believe that God will bring with Jesus those who have fallen asleep in him. According to the Lord's own word, we tell you that we who are still alive, who are left till the coming of the Lord, will certainly not precede those who have fallen asleep. For the Lord himself will come down from heaven, with a loud command, with the voice of the archangel and with the trumpet call of God, and the dead in Christ will rise first. After that, we who are still alive and are left will be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air. And so we will be with the Lord forever. Therefore encourage each other with these words.
