More than a few readers have wondered if I'll be able to finish the FLEE series before the end (or at least, before the outbreak of the great tribulation). Although some of these comments may be made in jest, it's certainly a valid question considering all that's going on in the news.
Watching the developing situation between North and South Korea has been especially interesting. Sudden cries of peace and cooperation between two nations technically at war for over six decades is certainly something worth keeping an eye on, but even if this whole thing blows over and the situation reverts to what it was just a couple of months ago, we know we're close. Very close.
But as I've said before, nothing would make me happier than being unable to finish this series due to the actual fulfillment of Bible prophecy. I mean, with the real thing unfolding before our eyes, what would be the point of fiction? It would be like collecting materials for a log cabin when a mansion is already under construction in your front yard.
The other point that's been so clearly driven home in my mind from watching the latest news is how unpredictable things truly are and how impossible it is to know what the next day holds. We absolutely have no idea exactly how things will unfold, though I imagine that the other side of this system, when we look back, we'll probably see just how inevitable and obvious it was all along.
Just like the ending of a good story!
