Matthew 24:7 Earthquakes and End of Days



Matthew 24:7 Nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom. There will be famines and earthquakes in various places.

With the earthquakes in Japan and now Indonesia yesterday, there have been a lot of talk on the end times.  Lets put these news in perspective. There are earthquakes going on daily, it is just that we only hear of the big ones 7.0 and above.




OK so if the end times or end of days is coming...what does the end times mean to you ? What is the impact that it happens tomorrow or next week or next month ? Will you do anything differently ?




Personally I feel that we focus too much on the end times and we loose sight of the present, and what we have to do now. We should concentrate on the things we can do today and do it now. The end times will come when the time comes. What we have done has gone into record, what we do today will contribute tomorrow. What we plan to do tomorrow may not come to pass. No matter how you worry about the end of days, it will not make that day come any sooner and you cannot defer that day. Live your life as best as you can and be true to the word of God.

Jeremiah 32:27 "I am the Lord, the God of all mankind. Is anything too hard for Me?"

Jeremiah 32:27



"I am the Lord, the God of all mankind. Is anything too hard for Me?"

The times in which we are most tested and pressed down ought to be the times of greatest growth and closeness with our Heavenly Father. When it seems we have no where else to turn, we ought to rejoice and trust Him even more! Let's put our life firmly in His Hands and submit to His guidance - even when we may not see where we are going or how we will get there. Let's trust His ways and always remember...for God, there is NOTHING too hard!


This was the message in my inbox today. Very timely in my circumstance, for I really feel there is no where to turn, no one to ask for help, no options available. I keep on praying and am constantly receiving assurance from God that everything is possible in his hands.
 

The ground shock again in Banda Aceh yesterday. I was sitting on the sofa when I felt a familiar side to side motion which was like not a normal feeling. This was the same strange feeling I had before during the last great earthquake in Banda Aceh, Indonesia. I had a feeling that this was happenning again. I did a quick check on the net and sure enough a 7.6 earthquake hit Aceh again around 12:46 pm. Thank God there was no Tsunami this time, but it brings back the thought that everything is in God's hands. The path we have choosen is in Gods hands. An event like this is totally out of our control.
