There is something that I discovered about 5 years ago. Every feast on the Jewish calendar is reflective of something Jesus did or will do. For instance, Passover is echoed in his death on the Cross. As the blood of the passover lamb caused the Angel of Death to pass over the Hebrews, so the death of Jesus (the Lamb of God) causes death to pass over each one of God's children.
As September comes around the Jewish feast of Rosh Hashanah is soon coming. This is echoed in something Jesus has yet to do. It will be fulfilled in the Rapture of the true believers in Jesus. Those who have put their faith in Him to cleanse all their sins and make Him the Lord of all of their life. For us true Christians, we will hear a trumpet and will be "caught up" (meaning of Rapture) to meet the Lord in the air. For those of you left behind, it will simply seem like millions of people have suddenly vanished. There will be several empty graves and all children under a certain age (the age of reason) will also disappear. You will experience fear like you have probably never known it before. Times are about to get even worse. It marks the beginning of the Tribulation. Yet, as God lets Satan have his day, it is all for a reason. That as you see the results of Satan (anti-Christ) being in charge of the world, you will recognize the difference in what it means to worship the One True God. You still have another chance to turn to God.
I don't know if this is the year God will Rapture us. Most Christians agree that it will be very soon. Perhaps any day. (and Christians rarely agree on anything, so that in itself is a miracle). Take comfort in the fact that we all knew about it before hand and that this blog is written to show you that God loves you, will accept you and you are not beyond hope as long as you still draw breath. Maybe this year... maybe the next one, but whenever He comes, I'm going to "live like I'm leaving. Like Heaven is in view. Live like I'm leaving. I will be evidence of you. In the shadows of my doubt or tomorrow come what may. I'm going to live like I'm leaving. Like I'm leaving today" (song by Philips, Craig & Dean).
"For the Lord himself will come down from heaven, with a loud command, with the voice of the archangel and with the trumpet call of God and the dead in Christ will rise first. After that, we who are still alive and are left will be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air. And so we will be with the Lord forever. Therefore encourage each other with these words." (1 Thessalonians 4:16-18)

Maple Leaf Meats
For those of you who haven't heard yet, several of the products of the company "Maple Leaf Meats" here in Canada have been found to be tainted. Many have gotten sick from eating these meats and some have even died. Even though Maple Leaf took immediate action when the meat was linked to the sickness and death, still more victims were found.
Now I suppose that confidence in Maple Leaf Meats is extremely low. I have personally stopped buying all kinds of processed meats. Even those from the local deli. The name Maple Leaf Fine Meats has become synonymous with dirty machinery, bacteria, illness and death and the company may never recover from this. What I find ironic is that, in the future, Maple Leaf Meats will probably be the most cleanly and safe sellers of meat in Canada and perhaps the entire world. I can only imagine the lengths to which they will go to make sure this never happens again. They will never cut corners and no effort will be too much for them to insure clean and safe meats. They have learned their lesson. At the cost of lives it is true, but while we take our business elsewhere, the safest meats in Canada will no doubt be Maple Leaf.
