Looking up.....looking out

Every year there is a military /historical show at Fort George near Inverness.Part of the show is an air display of a WW2 Spitfire and maybe a Messerschmit 109 or a North American Mustang. They race about the sky for about 25 minutes.It is fascinating .
People stop and look up when the Spitfire comes, golf ,running whatever, they stop and  stand and look up. Perhaps what tugs at the heart and longing is that the Spitfire and the Mustang come from a time when in the face of danger people were pulling and working together .We were facing the future together. "Blood ,sweat and tears." Churchill said.
In my books The Scent of Time and The Scent of Home and the being edited  The Scent of Eternity the time travelers face constant danger and have to decide who to trust ,but they have to work together and support one another.
Then the division started after peace,the carping, distrust and complaining. The desire to split society whether here or in USA We forget that the price of freedom is constant vigilance and as we divide ourselves apart,terrorism must be rubbing its hands with joy.
But when the Spitfire flew over head everyone united for short time in looking up. 
There is coming another day when everyone will look up .That day is when Jesus Christ returns.To those who love Him it will be a fantasic day to those who rejected Him it will be a day of final reckoning.
Look up He is coming back "The Son of man returns said Jesus at an hour when you least expect Him
