“And then shall they see the Son of man coming in the clouds with great power and glory.”
An easy way to pray is asking favors: “God give me…” “Please do…” It’s harder to pray an entire prayer thanking Him for blessings. It may be harder yet to attempt gratefulness for WHO HE IS? Try glimpsing His majesty. His might. Try seeing His Fatherhood. Try imagining His love. I know little of this but I’d like to know more about worship that’s beyond simply “list praying.” The late Ray Chamberlain was right when he penned the chorus about our “Great Big Wonderful God.” He is!

Noah
A perfect man in his own day;
God knew that he would obey.
He made a big boat
Which soon was afloat,
With kin, animals, and hay. [Gen 6.21]

Gal 3.14
“That the blessing of Abraham might come on the Gentiles through Jesus Christ;
that we might receive the promise of the Spirit through faith.”
You are you! You are not me. I am me! I am not you. We’re what God ordained, individuals. Never, Never give up your individuality. Never allow a government (ecclesiastical or secular), a philosophy or theology, a supposed “social cause,” press you into its mold & you stop being what God intended; you.

“The end of the world is compared to our harvest;
and you know men at harvest regard nothing but fruit.”
