33

Well ... we're still here.

This, after a prediction by some guy that today - September 23rd - would be the end of the world.  This kind of thing has been predicted many times over the years by one person or another with this or that supposed proof.  This time we were presumed to be the victims of mysterious Planet X colliding with Earth and wham-bam!  It's over.

This particular prognostication was made based on various Bible verses and numerical codes found in the Bible.  This forecaster said that recent events such as the solar eclipse and Hurricanes Irma and Harvey were omens of the approaching apocalypse.  

There was also a significant number related to this prophecy - 33.

The false prophet predicting about today said:  "Jesus lived for 33 years.  The name Elohim was mentioned 33 times in the Bible.  September 23rd is also 33 days since the August 21st solar eclipse."  Hmmmm.

NASA has repeatedly said Planet X does not exist.  

Whatever you believe about such things, the almost certain fact (because there's still 2.5 hours left in this day after I post this) ... we're all still breathing and the Earth is still revolving around the sun.  

The end will come when God says it comes.  Don't spend your time or waste your life trying to figure it out or change your life-giving routine to ascribe any honor to such forecasts.

When I first heard that today - September 23rd - was going to be our last day on the planet, I'll admit to an inner pride that rose up.  Today's my birthday.  September 23rd.  What better day to close the doors and turn out the lights than September 23rd.  

And I'm not even 33.

And be blessed.
