We'll keep a Welcome in the Hillside

I stayed at my friend Linda's on the Monday evening and the following morning we were up bright and early ready for our day trip to Llandudno. We arrived in plenty of time and as usual sat on the back seat, everyone bar one had arrived on time and so we were late setting off but arrived safe and sound at 12.30. Having never been before I was quite overwhelmed by the view; it was beautiful.

First things first we went on a hunt for a hotel that was owned by Linda's sister's widower, Linda had not seen any of the family for twenty years since the funeral of her sister. Her niece with her two boys came and they had a catch up it was lovely. Then it was off for sight-seeing, we decided we would go on the boat around the Orme. We had to walk down a wooden jetty which was fine until you hit the water and then it felt weird as you were standing still but underneath you was movement, I was quite relieved when the boat arrived and I have to be quite honest I could have gone around again.

It was interesting hearing all about the caves, 

smugglers and shipwrecks and such like.

When we finished our boat trip, we set off for a walk along the pier, we had thought to go up on to the Orme but we weren't sure we would have time. I bought myself a new hat which I have only worn once as I have left at my daughters. 

On to the coach for the trip back home we went past The Marble Church again,

and of course, at some point crossed the border from Wales to England, this fascinated me I know it would have only been a split second but for a moment in time half the bus was in Wales and the other half in England, and of course it was that fast you didn't even notice. It reminded me of the scripture passage: 

1 Corinthians 15:51-53 Behold, I tell you a mystery: We shall not all sleep, but we shall all be changed in a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trumpet. For the trumpet will sound, and the dead will be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed. For this corruptible must put on incorruption, and this mortal must put on immortality.

There is coming a time when all people who are born again, that is those who have repented of their sin, have put their faith in the Lord Jesus Christ and have asked Him into their lives will be taken off the earth, their bodies changed and they will be with the Lord and meet Him in the air. But the people who have not believed on Jesus will be left behind on the earth. No one knows when this is going to happen but one thing is for sure we must be ready and prepared, how? By living as God would have us to live which of course we can only find out about by reading His word, the Holy Bible and joining a fellowship of believers and listening to God's word explained by His teachers. And by careful study together. Jesus will not be waiting for anyone unlike the bus driver who waited for the late arrival if you’re not ready Jesus will have come and gone, don’t be one of those who will be left behind.

We don’t know when the Lord will come some of us will taste death before He comes, but whether we die or whether the Lord comes are you prepared.

There is a welcome in the hillsides of Wales for those who return, We'll keep a Welcome but there is a bigger welcome for people who turn to God and become His children when they get to heaven.
When we all get to heaven
