The End of the World

Wow. Well, as crazy as it may sound. This topic has crossed my mind more than once in my lifetime. Being raised in the Christian faith has caused this question to be raised many times in this family. Do I believe 100% of what the bible says? To my Mothers dismay, No I do not. I believe in God, the creator, the father to all living things. I have a difficult time wrapping my head around the idea that ONE book. One very small book is a true representation of every thing that our creator is. I have a hard time believing completely, that MAN was created to rule the world when WOMAN are the ones who give life. I have attended church, bible studies, read and discussed the bible in great detail over the years. But as I matured, as my mind developed. I see things a little differently than how I am sure my mother would prefer.
Could the world just end in an instant? Of course it could. Anything is possible. I doubt nothing but I choose to not believe everything that I hear or read. Rather, I choose to live my life and hope that in the end, It amounts to something. I hope that my life contributes something to a world who counts on the bad and is surprised by the good.
If the world were to end tomorrow. If there were natural catastrophe's that enveloped the planet. If all forms of life were reduced to dust. Than I ask this. Why is that such a bad thing? If we believe in God, our creator, our father. Why should any of us be afraid. If I believe that my loved ones who have entered the kingdom of heaven before me are at peace. Why on earth would I not want to join them?
Therefore, I do not fear the end of my life, regardless of the means it is taken.
I believe that God is so much bigger than anybody could possibly comprehend. I do not fear God. So this brings me the to the notion that I will not fear any circumstance that he may allow.
If all things are ordained. It is not my place to argue the intentions of the one who has given me my spiritual and physical life.
I look forward to going home. Because I firmly believe. It's the only place where any of us will truly be at peace and have a complete understanding of all things.
As long as I am giving the gift to breath. I will do my best to live a good life. But when my time is up? I will welcome my journey to where it all began.
Good Night :)
