    The Day of the Lord is soon. God will come whether you are prepared or not. Take the time to meditate His words, for you do not know the day of Christ’s return.

So then let us not sleep, as others do, but let us keep awake and be sober. - 1 Thessalonians 5:5-6 There is nothing wrong with growing old and dying. The problem is too many people die and then grow ...read more
