This is something I've been talking about with others for awhile. Well, since '08 at least, prior to that, I would talk to my kids and husband...but it wasn't till Obama came on the scene that I was shocked to know I wasn't alone in my feelings.

I think part of it is this: Just as not all are called to be teachers, healers, and so on, not all are called to be Watchmen. So, even though they ARE Christian, and know the time is coming, they don't feel the urgency, they just know that when it happens, they will be ready to meet their Lord in the air. Until then, they are content to just go along 'business as usual'. They are safe in the knowledge that they are His, and they know He will come for them, they just are not 'called' to spread the info, other than to be a silent witness by their lives in Him.

One of my friends, who felt the same thing I did when Obama stepped on the world stage, and also felt, just before the election that he was 'supposed to win'...told me recently, 'there is nothing we can do about what is supposed to happen, we can only pray for everyone, and be ready'. That is how my kids/husband feel too. I wonder sometimes if it's not ME who has a lack of faith that I get all riled up each time something happens in the world that is another indicator and I get all excited and try to point it out to others.

I guess the only ones we need to worry about are the ones who think we are crazy, because they don't think anything 'major' is going to happen. Maybe that's where we need to direct our energies.
