Im sorry everyone I know there are far to many of these out there but this is a rapture/Tribulation thread.
The Title says what I am dealing with, where is the hope. You see I have had many rapture dreams I have had tribulation dreams I have seen missiles raining down upon america I have seen demons let loose on the earth slaughtering people and I had a vision of being a bride in heaven.
And yet even with all of this you would think I would believe and I would have hope to finally go home, but because of my stubborness non of this has broken through to me. A year ago I spoke with ppl about the rapture, I was very excited everyday because I truly believed it could happen any day, and ppl told me how ppl have been saying this for ages and that he probably isnt going to come very soon thus fulfilling the scripture- 2Peter 3:4-They will say, "Where is this 'coming' he promised? Ever since our ancestors died, everything goes on as it has since the beginning of creation.
But after being misled for so long and hoping and looking up for so long yet nothing happened I built up a mental wall so I would not be mislead again and not get my hopes up for nothing. And so it takes a whole lot for me to believe he is truly coming and simply to have hope in his return.
In all honesty I have lost all hope and simply am unable to believe he is finally coming. Even though I know in my heart that I should simply believe and have hope even if I cannot see it, I keep saying to myself that I wish I had that hope I had before even if it really wasnt time to go home.
Because having blind faith and hope in something that simply isnt here yet is far better than having no hope at all, I have fulfilled the scripture that others before me fulfilled and that has to change.
So I will keep asking, keep trying to believe and pray that God will help me. I finally understand how ppl feel when they want to believe God is real and want to have faith but simply cannot, praying and begging God to reveal himself to them to give them hope and faith yet no reply.
In the same way this is me in my hope to go home, The bible says we receive a crown for looking for his return for being excited for it so I know that its Gods will I have hope again.
But sometimes I wish I had never learned of the rapture as it is a heavy burden to want to believe and have hope yet being unable to

A lot of times God will speak through me, I will be praying or talking about God and say something I normally would not say or say something and somehow know or feel that those were his words.
