I remember reading this passage when I was in high school and it terrifying me. “But the day of the Lord will come like a thief…”- 2 Peter 3:10 I don’t know about you, but I’m not fond of surprises… I like knowing what to expect…the time of the

And after you have suffered a little while, the God of all grace, who has called you to his eternal glory in Christ, will himself restore, confirm, strengthen, and establish you. To him be the dominion forever and ever. Amen. 1 Peter 5:10-11 We have come to the end of
