"To Douglas Martin re: "Don't Care""


Hi Doug,
 
You are not alone.  I've been feeling this way for years now, and so has my daughter.  I feel like I'm just marking time until the Lord returns.  Going through the motions because I have to.  That's all.  All the things that used to mean so much to me no longer matter.  I bought a house two years ago.  Normally, I would be so caught up in decorating it and making it perfect.  But I just don't care.  It's an empty feeling being unable to get excited about the old things I valued.  The absolute only thing I feel passionate about anymore is Jesus' return.  It's all I can think about and all I focus on 24/7.  People might call us "crazy", but actually, I think we finally have our priorities straight.  And I truly believe that "not caring" is a process the Holy Spirit has been perfecting in us over time.  When we leave, unlike Lot's wife, we mustn't look back.  I worry that I might look back to see if my loved ones are coming too.  But, we will just have to keep our eyes on Jesus.  That shouldn't be too hard considering his magnificence and splendor.  What a day it will be, huh?  God Bless
