Birds Falling and Fish Floating

"Therefore the land mourns, and all who dwell in it languish, and also the beasts of the field and the birds of the heavens, and even the fish of the sea are taken away." Hosea 4:3


Have you ever heard the adage, "Natural disasters have always happened, therefore no need to get alarmed."? The question that always ticks in my mind when I hear such things, when is the tipping point? When do we get to the point where we are alarmed. Does that point come when L.A. is crumbling and in the process of becoming Arizona Bay? Is the point when Manhattan completely submerged under 25 ft. of water. Or should that point be now? I don't believe in living in fear or running to the cave in complete isolation, but I do believe that we need to be ready for something that is going to come as an overwhelming surprise.  These disasters are happing all around the globe at an exponential rate.  http://earthquake.usgs.gov/earthquakes/world/historical.php  Is that still not good enough? Do we need more proof? When do we wake up as a people, to start preparing ourselves for the traumatic events that will soon take place. More importantly when do we start preparing for eternity. As I study the Bible and read that the events that unfolding all around the world, to me they are just mere fulfillments of prophecy, signs that are to be visible reminders the end is near, that Jesus is coming very soon. Maybe its time to start preparing the ark.
