End Times

End Times what does this term really means when people say that we are living in the End Times.  Usually, such a term reference the end of existence as seen in this presence reality. However, such a meaning can easily suggest that the world is constantly in a state of change unfolding the rationale for climate change, imminent nuclear war, or any pending pandemic outbreaks or national disaster.  This presence existence moves like an evolving state toward an unseen external destination but simultaneously producing an unction only seen by a selected few who announces, “End Times are upon us.” Therefore, I tend to ponder the comparison of this presence existence with an eternal experience.

Nevertheless, I believe if you look closer to ones’ surroundings there are clues that suggest this notion of living in the End Times. First, eternity lacks a starting point. Since this presence existence birthed from eternity when the Creator breathed life into this existence while causing life to materialize giving us that impulse to return to your Creator. Remember Scripture notes, for in this we groan, earnestly desiring to be clothed upon with our house which is from heaven. (II Corinthians 5:2 KJV) Therefore, one can interpret that the term End Times really speaks to ones’ eternal existence in which we are longing to return to our heavenly home in eternity.

Another clue reflects in the universe in form of sounds known as music.  Music has a tendency to touch ones’ soul. Even if you hear a song in a foreign language the tunes vibrate a rhythm that calms your spirit. Therefore, the Psalmist states, with trumpets and sound of cornet make a joyful noise before the Lord, the King. (Psalms 98:6) In other words, music in the formation of joyful sounds connect your inner man with your eternal Creator while signifying an impulse to return to your heavenly existence.  Therefore, one can easily say that when we produce music and rhythmic sounds that portion of our being formed by the Creator’s breath becomes awaken like a lost puppy yearning to return home.

Now the next time you hear the term End Times, start recognizing the clues of two existences – the presence world and the eternal world. Then these clues will awaken your awareness enabling you to experience the eternity from your inner self. This awareness will lead you to foster an understanding that your temporal existence coexists with your unseen existence.  Upon that epiphany, you will realize a temporal coexistence while longing to return home to your eternal existence.
