fearful ending
starships gather humans
justify my entry records
alone

Brilliant write, James! Like the way you put the "starships" into the Judgment Day scenario. Have you seen the movie "Knowing" yet? If you feel this way, you will love the film. Excellent write! Love, Carolyn

Love Laurie Ginn's remarks about her mother leaving the room. lol for lots of love, and laughs. I have spent a lot of time grieving the errors of my ways along the path. I hope it matters in the Face to Face we all face. My Ruminations in the Parking Lot poem is posted. It's around #12 from end of my entries. Nola

I like this one. If we think about it, we can become afraid. Thank God for Jesus' shed blood to cover me. Sara

Once as a kid I was at a church camp. In the middle of the night everyone started gathering in someones room talking about judgement day. Everyone saying how painful it was going to be standing in front of God with all we'd done. Everyone was so overwhelmed at the thought until one girl spoke up and said, I know how bad it's going to be but I can face that as long as he makes my mother leave the room to which a gasp went up throughtout the room and everyone nodded in fear.
