1 Thessalonians 4:15-18
For this we say unto you by the word of the Lord, that we which are alive and remain unto the coming of the Lord shall not prevent them which are asleep. For the Lord Himself will descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first: Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air and so shall we ever be with the Lord. Wherefore comfort one another with these words.
2 Timothy 4:7-8
For I am already being poured out as a drink offering, and the time of my departure is at hand. I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, I have kept the faith. Finally, there is laid up for me the crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous Judge, will give to me on that Day, and not to me only but also to all who have loved His appearing .

This Week's Sky at a Glance
Some night sky sights for August 10 – 18
Night owls can watch the weird waning Moon with
Jupiter, Venus and company. The Moon (enlarged
three times here) is positioned for viewers near the
middle of North America.

Don't miss the Saturn-Mars-Spica lineup in evening
twilight on Monday and Tuesday the 13th and 14th.
The lineup fits easily in the view of most binoculars.
Notice how pointlike Spica twinkles much more than
the planets. Planets' apparent disks are made of many
points, which twinkle nearly independently of each
other, thus averaging out.

As the Moon wanes further, dawn is the time to catch
it descending toward Mercury.
