TORNADOES and CHRIST'S RETURN

        My husband read an article to me the other day about the weather channel trying to warn people of approaching tornadoes by using a different set of words. Words such as "devastating", "catastrophic" and many more 'terrifying' words. They are trying to help people to understand the destruction that these things cause and therefore hoping that the people will seek shelter immediately instead of waiting till the last minute. Often times people did not believe there was really a tornado approaching and were severely wounded or killed. Or they may have been so caught up in whatever they were doing that they were hit unexpectedly. But most times people are usually given some type of warning and it is up to them how they will react!
   
          That brings me to another subject that is different yet very similar..Christ's return! I dare say that His coming is feared nearly as much as a tornado..yet people do nothing to prepare! The Christians are to warn people of Jesus' return. Are they making it clear? Are we understanding fully what it means? We cannot know the hour in which He will come again. (Matthew 25:13) Will we be caught unawares and not ready? It will be a horrible thing  for the person that has not made preparations!(Hebrews 10:31) Oh that we would be making preparations for when Jesus returns! Let us seek shelter everyday under the shadow of the Almighty! (Ps. 91:1)
         Blessings to you as you seek to be ready for both tornadoes and most of all, Christ's return!!
