My changed views on the Rapture

Sometimes, people need a little "nudging".Everyone has a "breaking point",and God might have to "throw something at them" to wake them up. Jonah didn't want to preach in Nineveh. So God grew a gourd overnight, and when it wilted Jonah longed for its presence. So God explained the point being shown,that if he felt this way about a gourd that sprung up overnight,how much more thousands of people.Next example, a blindness has come upon Israel{the Jews} until the time is right for it to be lifted.But when the Antichrist comes, although at first he'll make a deal with Israel and they'll follow him, when God opens their eyes through certain things, the veil is lifted and they "wake up."Now, for my personal case---I admit, although most Christians were excited talking about the Rapture,I admit,at first, I had some reservations. For one, none of my loved ones were saved, and so I thought of having to say goodbye forever to them,and I was sad thinking about it.So for that reason, I wasn't rushing the Rapture. Second, in the natural, getting whisked into the air and turned into a spirit hundreds of feet above the ground kind of creeped me out.{It's not an every day experience}BUT, like God changed Jonah and the Jews,my change was to come--I've never had great "luck",but at least there seemed always a "cover" around me to protect me from the worst of things.But lately, the bottom has fallen out and things have REALLY been, consistently, bad for me. So the "punch line"-- now I've went the other extreme about the Rapture,I'm impatient that it's taking it's time to happen.So again, I guess God knows everybodys "breaking points"--Jonah, the Jews--and ME!!I don't think any of this is by coincidence.Eh?
