Hurricane Rita:  Sign of the end

"And there shall be signs in the sun, and in the moon, and in the stars; 
       and upon the earth distress of nations, with perplexity; 
             the sea and the waves roaring;"

As Katrina's wretched sister Hurricane Rita crashes inland today
Wind whips sideways rain and super storm surging waves
Building destroyed and damaged and trees down everywhere
Fire broke out on a bus and electrical failures and gas mains

"Men's hearts failing them for fear, and for looking after those things 
     which are coming on the earth: for the powers of heaven shall be shaken."

Is Rita just another storm? or is her appearance a sign of the end?
It's better to be prepared and turn from and flee the lust of sin
Soon Jesus will return to the earth to reign in His Great Glory
Heed the warning my friend:  here's the rest of the great story:

"And then shall they see the Son of man coming in a cloud with 
      power and great glory.  And when these things begin to come to pass, 
             then look up, and lift up your heads; for your redemption draweth nigh."

See Luke 21:25-28
[25] And there shall be signs in the sun, and in the moon, and in the stars; and upon the earth distress of nations, with perplexity; the sea and the waves roaring;
[26] Men's hearts failing them for fear, and for looking after those things which are coming on the earth: for the powers of heaven shall be shaken.
[27] And then shall they see the Son of man coming in a cloud with power and great glory.
[28] And when these things begin to come to pass, then look up, and lift up your heads; for your redemption draweth nigh.
