At the Edge of Tommorow



"Come Find Me When You Wake Up!" -  From the movie "Edge of Tomorrow"

I was not sure if I would like the new sci-fi thriller movie "Edge of Tomorrow" but it was more than I had expected or hoped for.  It has humor, good acting, a strong story line, and great special effects.  All the elements of a good-sci-fi movie.  The movie is about an apocalyptic take over of planet earth by aliens.  Has anyone noticed that it seems like the earth is being hi-jacked by the enemy Satan while the church remains asleep or in a coma?  God is saying to the church again, "Come find me when you wake up."  It may take the death of the church before we see its resurrection.  We need a world-wide spiritual awakening where people more want God than what they think they can get from God.  Where people discover and learn that they are called into a great cosmic spiritual battle and if they do not wake up others, who will?  Fear is all around me but I sense the Holy Spirit calling me to fearless hope.  Wounded soldiers and abandoned people are all around me, can we find God's power in the midst of our weakness?  Maybe the church is on the edge, will it fall over the cliff or will it rise up to being a church at the edge as it ministers to a whole new generation of people who seek an authentic robust faith that is more real than the illusions of this world system.  Only tomorrow will tell!
