A list of 112 things to do before the SUPPOSED, "end of the world" - 12.21.2012
Oh yes & By the way, check out this awesome little countdown! -------------------------------------------------------------------------->
Okay, Okay - so just hold it there a quick little second...Let me just set one thing strait:
As a believer in Jesus Christ my Lord and Savior - The Bible says in Matthew 24:36
That the Day and Hour are Unknown:
"No one knows about that day or hour, not even the angels in heaven, nor the Son, but only the Father."
So I don't believe the world will end on that day. Something significant, maybe. But I'm not scared to say the least. Only god himself knows...I guess only time will tell.
So what's the point of all this? Well, I was reading a friend of mines blog, and she is currently doing 101 in 1001 days. I thought it was a good idea...a GREAT idea! So here I am...Instead of 12.21.2012 being a date of something negative the people and the media are making it out to be - personally, I want to make it a positive one. A goal for myself. I can't say I've ever made a goal for myself. So why not 112 of them...Lol! I'll be sure to keep the list updated...so who's with me!?!? :D :D :D
