I have been reminded often through my year-long + study of The Revelation of Jesus Christ, the time is near, but what that time actually is, now holds a far different meaning. As this study comes to an end, for now anyway, it is not so much about what is out there in the world, and events that we are expecting to happen, or even trials we expect to go through\u2026 It is about the same love we all felt when we experienced our own Walk to Emmaus. In that spirit, I share with you \u201cThe Lord Himself\u201d, a poem by Annie Johnson Flint, and wish you a blessed 2015.<\/h4>\n<h5><\/br><\/h5>\n<h4>It is not for a sign we are watching-<br \/>\nFor wonders above and below,<br \/>\nThe pouring out of vials of judgement,<br \/>\nThe sounding of trumpets of woe;<br \/>\nIt is not for a Day we are looking,<br \/>\nNot even the time yet to be<br \/>\nWhen the earth shall be filled with God\u2019s glory<br \/>\nAs the waters cover the sea;<br \/>\nIt is not for a King we are longing<br \/>\nTo make the world-kingdom his own;<br \/>\nIt is not for a Judge who shall summon<br \/>\nThe nations of earth to his throne.<br \/>\nNot for these, though we know they are coming,<br \/>\nFor they are but adjuncts of him,<br \/>\nBefore whom all splendour grows dim.<br \/>\nWe wait for the Lord, our beloved,<br \/>\nOur Comforter, Master, and Friend,<br \/>\nThe substance of all that we hope for,<br \/>\nBeginning of faith, and its end;<br \/>\nWe watch for our Savior and Bridegroom,<br \/>\nWho loved us and made us his own;<br \/>\nFor him we are looking and longing;<br \/>\nFor Jesus, and Jesus alone.<\/h4>\n<h5><\/br><\/h5>\n<h4>Blessings &amp; Adventure,<\/h4>\n<h5><\/br><\/h5>\n<h4>Lynn \u201clynnibug\u201d Rios<\/h4>\n<h5><\/br><\/h5>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I&#8217;ve lost my mind!\u00a0 This should have been posted early in January, but apparently I was asleep at the switch&#8230; or&#8230; maybe in love.\u00a0 But what I wanted to do was to offer something special for you to hold fast to as you begin this New Year.\u00a0 We are still in the first quarter, so&hellip; <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"sfsi_plus_gutenberg_text_before_share":"","sfsi_plus_gutenberg_show_text_before_share":"","sfsi_plus_gutenberg_icon_type":"","sfsi_plus_gutenberg_icon_alignemt":"","sfsi_plus_gutenburg_max_per_row":"","_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[3],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-3452","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-discussions"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/onemonthofwisdom.com\/wisdomblog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3452","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/onemonthofwisdom.com\/wisdomblog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/onemonthofwisdom.com\/wisdomblog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/onemonthofwisdom.com\/wisdomblog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/onemonthofwisdom.com\/wisdomblog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=3452"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/onemonthofwisdom.com\/wisdomblog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3452\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/onemonthofwisdom.com\/wisdomblog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=3452"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/onemonthofwisdom.com\/wisdomblog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=3452"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/onemonthofwisdom.com\/wisdomblog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=3452"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
