World still spinning, for now

Bloody but Beautiful   (Photo by Giuseppe Donatiello) 
For now, the world is still doing its thing.  But later this evening, there will not only be a lunar eclipse, but also a blood moon.

Those familiar with Joel 2:31 know the prophet predicted that the “sun shall be turned into darkness, and the moon into blood, before the great and terrible day of the Lord.”  Acts 2:20 then echoes these words.

This evening, we’ll be halfway, perhaps even three-quarters of the way there.  The full moon will have a “reddish hue,” and will be eclipsed “for about 15 minutes.”  This is not quite a solar eclipse, but it’s a bit too close for comfort.

So “people get ready, there’s a train a coming.”  Don’t wait until it's pulling away before leaping on board.
