Hi Tracy!
I hear ya, sister! It gets very disappointing! I don't want to hang out in this sin-blackened, sicko world any longer either--I want to go Home! Sometimes, I feel like just throwing in the towel and saying that we're all nuts and it's all just a bunch of hooey and there's no way of knowing WHEN the Lord is coming back! But then after I'm done doing my 'depression dance' and having a fit, I get a grip and take a look around me. A person has to be willfully blind these days not to see that 'something is up'--and soon WE'RE going to be up! :-) I go back over the Scriptures again, look at the news of the day again, pray, and get myself back up on that watch tower again.
Surprisingly, I don't feel as 'down' this year, because I just know, I know it in my spirit, that we are on the last bit of the home stretch. I remember the Scriptures that talk about the virgins falling asleep because the Bridegroom was delayed, and I think, "Yep, that's just how it is now!" But I'll be darned if I'm going to be one that falls asleep now after watching for so many years (since the mid 1970s)! Surely, we only have minutes left before we hear that "Come Up Here!" because the Bridegroom has come!
So hang in there, sister. Get back up on the watch tower with me and the other Doves. We'll try to keep each other awake no matter how long it takes or how discouraged we sometimes get. It'll be worth it--and I really don't think it's going to be much longer at all!
Love,
YSIC-Dawn Dominick
