“And they heard a loud voice from heaven saying to them, ‘Come up here.’ And they ascended to heaven in a cloud…” Revelation 11:12

Someday

Someday I will walk there on golden lanes and avenues, deserting forever the familiar ways of asphalt I trod below.

I will inhale a rare air and breathe the fragrance of the pure and holy.

I will look upon colors and hues and tints so intense and vibrant that they will steal my breath away.

Music will soar and sweep and linger in my soul. Such music as I have never heard or felt before will captivate me in its beauty.

I will encounter creations never imagined in all their beauty and power.

This is a place of continual wonder and discovery. Here questions are answered and wisdom prevails. Here books are opened and mysteries revealed.

In this place peace stills every unsettled soul. Each heart is satisfied and content.

I will live in awe of the Almighty. I will dwell forever in His presence.

I will be fully occupied with praise and exhilarated in worship.

I shall see living waters flowing, waters pure and clean from the throne of God.

Trees will bear healing leaves to grant strength and enduring health.

I will live in eternal light and no night shall overcome me.

I will be perfected and complete.

I will know Him.

The dawn is breaking. The Light is shining. The Day Star is rising.

Arise and rejoice!

Rise up my love, my fair one and come away!

“Ah, Lord God! Someday! We wait for you until our faith becomes sight. Amen.”
