Yesterday, February 3, Anita went with me to a doctor’s appointment in Ft. Wayne. When we got out, it was about 12:30 PM, so we decided to get a bite to eat. As we pulled up to a stop sign at a side street, I could hardly believe my eyes. There, in the grass next to the road, were about ten red-breasted robins. On February 3!

What’s up with nature these days? Don’t those robins have an internal calendar telling them when to go north? Or have they been here all winter? Hadn’t they been notified by the ground hogs that there will be 6 more weeks of winter? Or perhaps those particular birds had eaten poison and were deranged or something.

Jesus rebuked the Pharisees when he said, “When evening comes, you say, ‘It will be fair weather, for the sky is red,’ and in the morning, ‘Today it will be stormy, for the sky is red and overcast.’ You know how to interpret the appearance of the sky, but you cannot interpret the signs of the times“ ( Matthew 16:2-3).

What are sign that let you know that the last days are upon us?
