October Run - Plus - An Additional Seventh Portion

The October challenge, find amazing parts of theology and
then each day bring one paragraph to you the reader about that.
Sometimes when it is late at night, and a singular
message movie is on, like this evening, and this
movie, "The Postman," a Kevin Kostner movie,
which while it will rankle some of my "thou
shalt not watch R rated movies" folks- I watch,
because it's after the horror of apocalypse
message is a powerful one. Yes a person has to
look past some pretty shocking realities portrayed
in the movie, but isn't that life, finally, really?
Here is what frightens me during those times,
the distinct possibility that death won't greet me,
and the second coming will not have occurred,
but instead, the fragile and delicate threads which
bind this great nation of America together, will
come unraveled in such a way that leaves us
scattered, shattered, sheltered but without hope.
This is just one paragraph, but bear in mind that
theologically the end of time may happen a little
differently than what folks are commonly
talking about; and the average way you hear it
laid down, don't make it so- and what is most
dangerous of all is pretending that we're ready-
the most frightening fact of all is that we not
only aren't prepared for most disasters, we
have actually deluded ourselves to believe
that we won't survive them- see it's horrible
when loved ones die, when all around you is death,
but what's most horrible of all is when you live,
but you wish, you hadn't- because you could have
been prepared, but you chose to bury your head
in the clouds instead of working the harshness
of the sands. Don't take my word for it, just ask
anyone who lived through 9/11 - who got out
of the towers, ask anyone who got out of the
most insane Hurricane in recent human history-
or anyone who survived the countless horrific
disasters like Mt. St. Helens, or on a global
scale, where the ill preparedness accurately
accused the U.N. of their total neglect of the
need for it, ask anyone who survived India's
horrific Tsunami's- or China's incredible floods
where the body count is still not clear- ask
them- if they'd prepare better today?
