The great and glorious day of the Lord is near. We are living in a thrilling time, even though it may feel stressful if you let it. To realize that we've been told lie after lie, we can hardly recognize the truth anymore. The truth is what you see and touch physically. You know what God has done for you, but you can also see what God has done for others; you know the truth about their testimony. The intricacies of creation can be seen and touched, showing us that a being beyond our mind's capacity to understand exists. Even those who do not believe in the Bible can know God and his infinite wisdom because they can touch the living things He created and see them with their own eyes. Fortunately, we believe the Bible and know the details of His love for us. To understand the fullness of God's love, the sacrifice of animals didn't give us complete healing from our sins, so God gave us the perfect sacrifice of His son, Jesus, who bled, died, and rose again for the sins of the world. I can't comprehend the reason for a blood sacrifice, but that's over now because of Jesus. Even though the world doesn't know him, we know him and can count on him to take us to dwell with him in eternity. What a great and glorious day that will be!

Seek ye the LORD, all ye meek of the earth, which have wrought his judgment; seek righteousness, seek meekness: it may be ye shall be hid in the day of the LORD'S anger. Zephaniah 2:3

The LORD hath taken away thy judgments, he hath cast out thine enemy: the king of Israel, even the LORD, is in the midst of thee: thou shalt not see evil any more. Zephaniah 3:15

And it shall come to pass, that whosoever shall call on the name of the Lord shall be saved. Acts 2:21
