Then a thought occurred to me. We read the signs of the weather, but why not the signs of the time. We know when sunshine's sure to come, and when rain is on the way.
Technology foretells what the future holds with our weather, day by day.
And like the lesson of the fig tree, a verse we hold so dear. When its twigs are tender, and leaves come out, we know that summer's near. As in the day of Noah, sin sweeps across the land. The signs are there, the Bible warns. God's judgement is at hand.
