Hi Randy and doves,
While I will not use the words " worried or fear", I share the same concern you do.
I have been seriously watching and studying the end times signs since 2005.  But have been excited the Lord would be returning in our generation since the late 70s.

I have strongly hoped and prayed since 2007 each year would be the year.  It seemed so real each time!  Here we now are in 2012.  Still hanging out at the launching pad ready for take off!!!

Each year my zeal was strong.  This year, not so much.  Do not misunderstand.  No way can I give up on the Blessed Hope of our departure.

I simply am not excited with the possible rapture dates anymore.  I certainly hope and pray we are out ny June but I have no inward assurance as of yet.

I do believe Noah and Elijah knew they were going to depart days and hours before they went up.  Noah had a 7 day warning/prep time.  Elijah and Elisha were walking and talking about his departure.

So while we know Israel is the time piece,  I think the Holy Spirit is going to prompt us days or hours before we lift off.

I of course could be absolutely  wrong.

Concerning Israel, I did read and hear on the news Israel is very close to making a decision to attack Iran.

As you would say Randy....
