Tender Green Buds

When the buds are tender green
And the fig leaves begin to sprout
None will mistake the end time scene,
The earth itself will shout.

Upon a horse,faithful and true,
He returns on a cloud,
As, in the air He comes into view
Every knee is bowed.

The book of life is opened,last
Sin meets it's heart's desire;
The deceiver and the deceived,cast
Into the lake of fire.

Water ,clear as crystal now,flows
Reviving,the once dead;
Those faithful,who Jesus knows,have
His name on their forehead.

A new earth,no more fire,sunlight or sea,
But living water that heals,thee and me.

I like this one. Prophesy is hard to understand and even the best at interpreting it will pale when we see how the end really comes about. I think maybe the fig tree has budded but it is not producing fruit yet. What a wonderful thing to see, taste, drink and enjoy that wonderful water. (I wonder if it is the Holy Spirit though). Thanks for the visit. Sara

About the dirty laundry/ and the awful stink in the laundry basket, our grandson took a job driving an 18 wheeler for several years and he would only come home every 2 or 3 weeks and sometimes longer. He would bring home his dirty laundry for me to get done over a long week end then he would be on the road again. I managed to get him up enough clothes to make it about 3 weeks on the road with a few left at home so I could have clothes for him when he came home. Sara
