And he said, Go forth, and stand upon the mount before the Lord. And, behold, the Lord passed by, and a great and strong wind rent the mountains, and brake in pieces the rocks before the Lord; but the Lord was not in the wind: and after the wind an earthquake; but the Lord was not in the earthquake: And after the earthquake a fire; but the Lord was not in the fire: and after the fire a still small voice.

I Kings 19: 11-12 (KJV)

voice that leads us, guides us, comforts us,

So grateful for that still small quiet velvet voice!

Thou art worthy, O Lord, to receive glory, and honor, and power: for thou hast created all things, and for thy pleasure, they are and were created.

so exuberantly joyful that we can all

know the King of Kings and Lord of Lords

in a personal, individual relationship which

brings us all to our knees as we worship and

the glory, and the honor, and the power,

because Thou — Thou didst create all things,

and because of Thy will are they, and they were

created. Worthy, worthy, worthy is the lamb that

was slain. For to thee alone is honor, glory, riches

and power forever and forever and forevermore!

But I do not want you to be ignorant, brethren, concerning those who have fallen asleep, lest you sorrow as others who have no hope.  For if we believe that Jesus died and rose again, even so God will bring with Him those who sleep in Jesus. For this we say to you by the word of the Lord, that we who are alive and remain until the coming of the Lord will by no means precede those who are asleep. For the Lord Himself will descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of an archangel, and with the trumpet of God. And the dead in Christ will rise first. Then we who are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air. And thus we shall always be with the Lord. Therefore comfort one another with these words.
