A time of trouble


After Daniel 12:1-13
 

Warning: trouble ahead.

Promise: deliverance.

A time unlike any

before, a time 

of trouble, danger,

death, destruction, war

and desolation, yet

a door opens, slightly,

a sliver of light shines

through the darkness,

the light of deliverance

and salvation for the people

enduring, their names

recorded. They slip

through the door; they

enter the light, saved

from destruction ongoing.
