I thought this might be fun.
You know you are a watcher when: Normal conversation is boring and you only want to talk about how close the rapture is.

You know you are a watcher when: You scan the news and focus on what is happening in Israel.

When others talk about long range plans, you think "I doubt if I'll be here to see any of this".

I am reading your answers and they all apply to how I feel so I know each of these apply to all of us.

Boy are we all on the same page!!!
All of the above...Plus!
When your focusing more on what Heaven will be like, than focusing on what the next day will bring.

Nana, you have described me to a T I also find I don't worry about things as much because I simply won't be here.

God Began a work in my life 50 months and 21 days ago ... He's not finished. Unfortunately, I can't focus on anything but to be doing everything I need to be doing in order for Him to accomplish His work. Might He take us up beforehand? Yes, but until He does, focusing on the rapture isn't an option for me (although I do enjoy seeing all of these end-time signs taking place around the world)

You're fortunate Jim because with something important to focus on, time should pass fast, for you.

Well, the way I see it at least, it's not much different than watching for the rapture. In fact, there's a lot of similarities, in that the signs of something about to happen speed up, then slow down, with a major lull thrown in here and there. So it's relatively the same experience with a different focus.

I signed up just yesterday to attend the Prophecy in the News Prophecy Conference in Colorado Springs at the end of July, and am figuring there's a chance it might not materialize after all. On the other hand I was convinced my signing up for that same conference last summer was probably futile... but the end of July came and went despite my expectations. Oh what a wretched man I am!
How could we be wrong? We're so sincere!

Okay. I have to stop laughing. Every single person on this thread summed it up for me as far as my thoughts. I really can't add anything at all.
You know you're a watcher when you're at a family function and you just zone out while someone is speaking to you about extremely mundane things. Getting off this planet and being with Jesus is in the forefront of your mind but you pretend like you are listening to their rants about redoing their lawns and buying a new car, long term plans for the future, etc.

When you are absolutely gobsmacked that every other Christian around you isn't in absolute awe of the times in which we live (in fact they are very nonchalant or even indifferent) and the very real possibility that our Yeshua is coming for us soon! Pins and needles, people! When every conversation you have, no matter with whom you are speaking, you have to practically bite your tongue off trying to keep from interjecting Rapture talk. When some of your Christian friends tend to avoid you, so as not to have to hear about what is going on in the Middle East and why it is significant-- yet again. LOL. The above are in ADDITION to every other statement above. I have a wonderful watcher BFF, and she and I always look at each other and say "As IF" when someone talks of something long term. It is a little "inside joke" between us. It makes me smile!

You know you're a watcher when your conversations about cat pictures accidentally devolve into conversations about the Rapture...

LOL! That's so true, Shelayne and Benjamin. We're just constantly watching and we'll work prophecy and the rapture in there somehow with those cat pictures...or any other thing, for that matter,

You know your a watcher when your always wondering if the Rapture happened today...who will be going and who would be left behind.
You know your a watcher when Israel sneezes your wondering "Could this be it?"
You know your a watcher when all else outside of Scripture, Prophecy and Jesus Soon Return is absolutely BORING!!!...

I liked your post MS it made me laugh. I fit with almost every You know you are a watcher statement. I need to tone myself down when talking about end-times because it just comes out of my mouth fast and furious and I think it scares people off at times. I just overwhelm them and that just ends the conversation.
