Rapture - The Midnight Cry

Anthony Uchenna Azubuike

Sinopsis

The term "midnight cry" is often used in connection with the Rapture. It is derived from the parable of the ten virgins in Matthew 25, where Jesus describes a wedding feast that takes place at midnight. The parable warns against being unprepared for the coming of the bridegroom, who represents Christ. The midnight cry is a call to wake up, to be alert and vigilant, and to be ready for the sudden and unexpected return of the Lord.

The midnight cry is a powerful and evocative image that has resonated with Christians throughout history. It is a reminder of the urgency and importance of being prepared for the Rapture. The midnight cry is a call to repentance and faith, a call to turn away from sin and embrace the salvation offered by Christ. It is a call to live a life of holiness and righteousness, a life that is pleasing to God.

The midnight cry is also a call to action. It is a call to share the gospel with others, to warn them of the coming judgment, and to invite them to accept Christ as their Savior. The midnight cry is a call to be a light in the darkness, a beacon of hope in a world that is filled with despair.

Someday

Isaac Asimov

Someday by Isaac Asimov - The thoughts of youth are long, long thoughts... but those of a frustrated machine are longer—and deadlier! 
Niccolo Mazzetti lay stomach down on the rug, chin buried in the palm of one small hand, and listened disconsolately to the Bard. There was even the suspicion of tears in his dark eyes, a luxury an eleven-year-old could allow himself only when alone. 
The Bard said, "Once upon a time in the middle of a deep wood, there lived a poor woodcutter and his two motherless daughters, who were each as beautiful as the day is long. The older daughter had long hair as black as a feather of a raven's wing, but the younger daughter had hair as bright and golden as the sunlight of an autumn afternoon. 
"Many times while the girls were waiting for their father to come home from his day's work in the wood, the older girl would sit before a mirror and sing—"

The Meteor Girl - A Meteor Opens...

Jack Williamson

The Meteor Girl is an early science fiction story by Jack Williamson, first published in 1931. It follows a young telegraph operator whose ordinary night shift is disrupted when a meteor crashes nearby — bringing with it something far stranger than stone. The encounter pulls him into a mystery that blends young love, cosmic possibility, and the unknown forces that move between worlds. Williamson uses simple, direct prose to create a sense of widening wonder as the familiar gives way to the extraordinary.
The story reflects the optimism and curiosity of early pulp-era SF. Rather than grim speculation, it leans toward discovery — the idea that the universe is full of secrets waiting to be stumbled over by unsuspecting people with open eyes. Like many early Williamson pieces, it treats science not as abstraction but as an adventure through which ordinary lives are suddenly changed.
Jack Williamson (1908–2006) was one of the longest-lived and most respected voices of American science fiction. Raised in rural New Mexico, he began selling stories to the pulps as a teenager and remained active well into the 21st century — his career spanning from the age of airships to the age of the internet. Williamson wrote across styles and decades, from space opera to thoughtful sociological SF, producing works like The Legion of Space, Darker Than You Think, and later the Hugo and Nebula-winning Terraforming Earth.
He bridged generations of the genre, studying it formally and teaching it at Eastern New Mexico University while still publishing fiction. Williamson’s work helped move science fiction from pulp entertainment to a literature of ideas, and The Meteor Girl stands as an early glimpse of the imagination that would make him a pillar of the field.
