just stop and think,

what if one day you wake up thinking it was a normal day..
only.. it's not.
some of your loved ones are missing.
gone, without a trace.
no note to say goodbye, no letter to explain why.

you realize this world is colder without them.
you realize how lonely things can get.
you realize that you have to face the tough times of this world;
alone.

you walk around and you wonder aloud,
'where did they go?'
it's so frustrating you just wanna shout.
and all the answers you wanna know.

then it suddenly dawns upon you like a missing puzzle piece
the friends that you suddenly miss
all had one thing in common-
they're are all of christian belief.

that rapture your friends were talking about;
how one day they would all go up to heaven
and receive the rewards in due time.
while those non-believers, sadly, stayed behind.

so now you know that the time had come,
when Jesus would descent from heaven down.
as the world will soon face its' end
and the left-behinds will face their trials.

if only you knew, if only you believed what your friends tried to tell you
then you, too, would have been spared from the fire.
but then it's too late as what's done is done
by then your friends would already be back home.

*
but lo, it's not too late now
as the world still spins, round and round.
while life is still in favor,

i'm asking you,
will you believe,

in Jesus our Saviour?
