After our sons left the Church, their apartment (attached to our house) was hit by lightning late at night while they lay sleeping. A hole was blown clear through their wall, and missed them by about five feet (maybe less), and plasterboard was strewn ALL over the place. I have no idea how they got out of that unscathed. Within a couple-three weeks of that strike, an old elm tree was knocked over by wind, and missed their room by less than a foot. They have not taken either incident as a "sign."
When Christ decides to cleanse the world with more vigor, however, it's not going to be pretty. We sit about doing our day-to-day activities as He's about ready to blow His top, because of all our senseless, murdering, unrepentant sin. Myself, I've been upping my adoration time, trying to save the lives (souls!) of my kids, myself, my hubby (he doesn't need any help, but what the heck; he gets prayed for anyway) and all we hold dear.

We’re very close; I wonder just what it will take to end up pushing Him over the edge.
