{wonder}

I think a lot, I would say daily I think about what the second coming will be like. I don't know if anyone else thinks about it. But how could we not. The signs are all around us that the Lord is Hastening His work. Even though life seems normal and the same we have to know that eventually its not going to be the same.

I love the scriptures in Alma 5. Basically the whole thing. But the part where Alma testifies in verses 16-22. I can actually see myself there.

V 19: can ye look up to God at that day with a pure heart and clean hands? I say unto you,

can you look up...

v14: Have ye received his image in your countenances? Have ye experienced this might change in your hearts?

I think of how it says in the scriptures that all wicked will be burned at His coming. I was thinking of this I was picturing a great fire and people burning and maybe that is what it will be or maybe it will be, because the Light of Christ is so bright, just like Joseph said "“His eyes were as a flame of fire; the hair of his head was white like the pure snow; his countenance shone above the brightness of the sun.

I think if we are going to be able to endure even a particle of His light we must do His work so we can have his light in us. I don't know if this makes any sense. But light takes on light, darkness to darkness. The light chases away the dark. So if there is darkness in us what will happen at His coming. I am so sad that in these mortal bodies it is so hard to not have some kind of darkness in us. I do believe my greatest darkness is Pride. And that is the worst darkness. I am glad that I recognize this because I want to try hard to correct it. Pride is an awful thing. And it then says in

Alma 5:28, Are ye stripped of Pride? I say unto you, if ye are not ye are not prepared to meet God. Behold ye must prepare quickly; for the kingdom of heaven is soon at hand, and such an one hath not eternal life.

I think I have some work to do...
