even now

12 That is why the Lord says, “Turn to me now, while there is time. Give me your hearts. Come with fasting, weeping, and mourning. Joel 2:12 NLT

Joel is one of the Old Testament prophetic books. Joel 2 starts with:

1 Sound the trumpet in Jerusalem! Raise the alarm on my holy mountain! Let everyone tremble in fear because the day of the Lord is upon us.

It goes on to describe the destruction. Verse 6 says: 

6 Fear grips all the people; every face grows pale with terror.

 

After the description of the horror comes our verse for the day:

Even now, turn to Me with all your hearts, with fasting, weeping and mourning.

Last night I had two dreams. In the first I had been watching the paralympics and taken lots of photos, thinking to arrange them later. However, later I could not remember the names of the participants. My head buzzed with the speed of the images and the business but they were worthless until I remembered the names.

 I felt a caution, slow down and remember the ones. It is important to control the noise and look at the people.

In the second dream I saw a will. It was old, the language and images were wrong and a new one had to be made. The divorced man was remarrying the wife of his youth. In a second scene, the man was at a ticket booth at a railway station dictating his will.  However streams of people were trying to get by him to catch a train. He was in their way.

 I believe a new things is happening with Israel. The time of the gentiles has almost ended and the time of remarrying the bride of His youth has come. He is in the way of those streaming to death.
