So, I was "guarding freight" last night at work, outside about sundown after a massive thunderstorm had passed over. I was reading through the Book of Revelations (..hehe), the seven seals, the bowls of God's Wrath, the woman Babylon and the Antichrist. Scary stuff, that is, if you have a healthy fear of the Lord and the Judgement to Come.
Anyways, I happened to look up from my reading and the whole sky was, no joke, blood red. For a moment, panic seized me, my imagination winning over self-control. I thought for sure the Tribulation was upon us! Go on you can laugh if you want; I did, after the fact. Still I could not help but mavel at the beautiful, yet fearful, sunset the Lord had painted over Florida that night. The clouds, what remained of that day's storms where indeed blood red in the east and slowly working their way west they melted into oranges and yellows and finally-! right at the horizon, the clouds were molten gold! Like God had melted down the purest, solid gold and splattered it like paint across the horizon. I had never seen anything like it and words do not do this justice I fear. It instills in me the beauty and majesty of my God and how the things of heaven and He Himself are even far more beautiful than anything on earth. The earth is His canvas yes, but the artist Himself...it makes me long for Rapture. I don't understand how people can deny the existence of God when His glory and the Works of His Hand are all around us. Praise the Majesty and Power and Beauty of My God!
"For the invisible things of Him from the creation of the world are clearly seen, being understood even by the things that are made, even his eternal power and Godhead; so that they are without excuse." Romans 1: 20
