I may not see in front of me, But I can see for miles around when I look over my shoulder, and Lord, it`s clear. You`ve brought me here, So faithful every step of the way. What can I do but follow you, For You are the Way, the Truth, the Life, And You`ve promised never to leave me, My Savior, my friend, From beginning to end.
I Am Found In You

Look, He is coming with the clouds, and every eye will see Him, even those who pierced Him; and all the peoples of the earth will mourn because of Him. So shall it be! Amen. Revelation 1:7 NIV
I'm not a "told you so" kind of guy. I remember numerous times I have had the opportunity. Like the time I told my son he couldn't eat all that he had ordered (yesterday). Or, when I was a boy and someone said I couldn't run around the oak tree and back faster than they could. I usually just smile inside about my "correctness" and do little gloating.
I can say this is a Biblical thought I'm about to make. It may even be a little wrong, but I'm just being honest. I can't wait to see the expression on some faces when Jesus comes back!
Man oh man, aren't a few people going to be surprised! Like the wealthy well-known guy who recently said that Christians are rejects from other religions. And, the one who said Christians were chasing after wild dreams that can never come true. And, those who have said that Christians must really love fairy tales.
I'd like to see the first look on the governments leaders who have in recent years been persecuting Christians. And, won't those who say the church "is full of hpocrites" be surprised? I know they'll be quite a reaction from the Psychic Hotline producers, and all the others who have trusted after other gods.
Yes, I'm going to enjoy myself, not so much at seeing them finally know the truth. In fact, I think we need to be leading them toward the truth even and especially now, before Christ's return. But, I'm going to get excited about seeing my JESUS get all the glory that is due His Holy Name!
All the glory belongs to Jesus, and one day, maybe soon, everyone will know that truth! What a day, glorious day, that will be!
