The Prayer During The End Times

i apologize for being extra mellow these few days.

not without reasons though...

so many things had happened and are still happening especially the catastrophe in Japan...

left me wondering-

how much time do we ACTUALLY have to walk on the surface of this world?

Earth is breaking...slowly falling, shattering into fine dust...

i anticipate every second that draws the hour nearer and nearer

and each time disasters like this happen,

a sure feeling just tells me that the end is drawing near.

it's never easy to accept this fact though I believe it will eventually come.

part of it is because there are so many things in life that i have yet to experience, to do, to encounter, to enjoy, to grief...

i'm feeling a choking lump in my throat and watery eyes while i'm writing this.

the hour is creeping in rapidly, silently, like that of a phantom...

yes i am scared.

i tremble with the mere thoughts of having to live to see the world fall apart.

i promise not to blame if you believe that Armageddon will remain a mere fantasy scene in the movies...

but judging from the frequencies of the occurance of natural disasters and conflicts among nations...

mankind WILL be put to test soon.

soon, but don't know when the time is.

and when the darkest hours fall upon mankind,

cries of sufferings,

mourns over dead family members,

pleas for mercy and forgiveness

will be heard- day and night.

but i believe the voices that He wants to hear when He decides to some and redeem his Kingdom would be the restless prayers of His people.

but we need not wait until that day to start praying.

pray for the nations who have yet to come to know Him,

pray for repentance and redemption,

pray for salvation,

in fact,

let Him know His people are waiting for Him.

let our prayers pierce the Heaven and reach His ears.

Lord,

i maybe shaking in fear knowing that the days will not be easy when You decide to redeem this world,

but let me be steadfast in my faith and love in You till the day You come again.
