"Thou tellest my wanderings..." Psalm LVI.8

I do not know about you, but life sure is a sobering experience. It all happens really fast. A verse from Proverbs comes to mind: "A man's heart deviseth his way, but the LORD directeth his steps." We can, and should, do what we can to plan responsibly, but we had better be ready to move when God says it is time. And we had better know how to do it quickly. Do not get stuck in or too attached to one place - because when it is time to go, you go. As Jesus Christ said, "Remember Lot's wife." She had grown attached to Sodom and Gomorrah, but it was time to go, and so looking back cost her her life.

One day soon, if my theology of the "rapture" is correct, we will soon get our utlimate "it's time to go" call. When we do, will we be looking back? Let us be found among them that "love his appearing". And if he keeps us in wandering mode so that we are ready to go at any time, let us thank him for it.
