Per CBS News: Rapture rescheduled for October. Camping found math error in his calculations, but says Judgment has already happened on May 21.
So we learned that even civil engineers can make math errors.
Have to miss it tonight, boo! Won’t be able to listen til after Memorial Day. Have a wonderful weekend all.
I’m re-reading “Let Nothing Disturb You “… a journey to the center of the soul with Teresa of Avila (one of my faves) and sharing today’s (Day 27) prayer/meditation:
“As for me, given a choice I would always choose the way of suffering, not just because it allows me to imitate the way of Jesus, but because it brings many other blessings with it. We cannot understand how suffering can be a grace and how great a blessing it is until we have left all things for the sake of Jesus. For if we are attached to any one thing, it is because we have set a value on it. It may be painful to surrender what we value. What greater calamity could there be than to make much of what is nothing to cling to what has no value. One day, my Lord said to me: “Believe me, my daughter, trials are the heaviest for those my father loves the best. Trials are God’s measure of love. How could I better demonstrate my love for you than by desiring for you what I desired for myself?” To be truly spiritual is to make ourselves slaves of God branded with the cross. God can give us no greater grace than to give us a life such as was led by Jesus.”
Offering prayers for all who are suffering.
Blessings,
Kathleen
