Don't know when you'll be picking this up this week.

Might not be till Friday.

Totally understand.

Coming out of the holidays can be kind of a blur. The inbox is always waiting and I just dread how many

emails are in there that I've been ignoring for a few days but with me today in the studio again, Alan Arnold here, John Eldridge, and welcome.

Welcome to the Ransomed Hart podcast.

Just crazy to think that we are already in a new year now it's 2018 and I won't

get that right on my checks and the things I'm writing for probably two months.

It seems like 2017 was such a blur like it was February and then it was June and then I looked up and it was Thanksgiving and

Christmas like did it feel that way for you? Oh the holidays totally took me by

surprise and I mean we were looking forward to them we knew they were coming

but I don't know if this is a piece of when Jesus is talking

about you know as the story begins to wind up into its wonderful climax and

the end of the age.

One of the things he says, he says,

for the sake of the elect, the days will be cut short

or shortened.

You know, I'm just kind of wondering if this is part of that mercy.

Wow, that, you know, that went really fast.
