in case anyone was paying attention, an asteroid the size of a 10 story building buzzed past earth, missing us by only 40,000 miles the other day. while this may seem like a long way off, it is only 1/7 of the way to the moon, and only 2x as high as our highest satellite. if it would have hit the earth, scientists predict it would have been the equivalent of a large nuclear blast. what's even more interesting is that it is within the earth's orbit, which means we will have plenty of near misses from this thing in the future.
also, if you are into that sort of thing, the mayan calendar runs out in the year 2012. why is this significant, you ask? well, up until now, the mayan calendar has been the most accurate of any calendar ever devised by man, partly due to the mayan's advanced astronomy. many believe that the mayans believed this date to be the end of time. nostradamus, while normally a quack, has had some interesting predictions that make eyebrows raise in terms of how accurate they are, and he states that we will have a major celestial upheaval in our solar system when our sun travels through a cosmic disturbance, producing three different eclipses in the same day. interesting.
then there's obama. our immensely popular president, seemingly loved by all worldwide. he is ushering in a new era of socialism in our country. a totalitarian regime where the government owns all and controls all, including our finances. one major economist is predicting that the u.s. economy will collapse by 2012, due to the over-spending of our government.
interesting stuff. the Bible says that no man will know when Christ will return, and people have been predicting it ever since the disciples' time. however, the year 2012 seems to possibly have some major omens attached to it. what if there were only 3 years left on earth? how would you spend them? what changes, if any, would you make to your life knowing that you would stand face to face with the Creator, the Christ, to account for your life? make no mistake, every day we are living on borrowed time. what will you say when you are asked to give a report of how you spent and invested the time that was entrusted to you?
sleep well, friends. for tomorrow may not come for many or all.
And so we pull

We are not to know the day or the hour. We are supposed to be prepared at all times to go home to God.
I thoroughly agree. That is the question I hope everyone asks themselves by reading this. "Am I ready?"
Where can Obama go after being president of the US in his 40's? What's he to do with the rest of his life? I'm sure he's headed for the UN, which makes for some very scary speculation for the end times.
I'm not ready. I want to be.
