Little Pieces of Heaven

Heaven isn't very far away.
It's near us at all times
We just have to know 
how to find it.
Pieces of Heaven embrace us
Just as friends
Friends we met in heaven
We make heaven
With our actions and words
Recognizing heaven takes some work
It takes love, laughter, and  living.
 
On Sunday, my understanding of heaven grew.
I hadn't been at EFY for almost three months.
I hadn't seen some of my wonderful
amazing friends for three months.
I didn't realize how much I missed these people.
These people I surely knew in heaven.
Some I didn't know but that doesn't matter because
these people had a love for the gospel
 
We sang together again.
I could feel the love we had for each other.
However,
more then anything I felt the love we had for the lost sheep.
That's what bound us together this summer.
Not bbqs, road trips, or fireworks.

No we were bound by the Spirit and a mission.
Sitting together on a warm October day, I felt like this is what heaven is like
No malice
No hate
Just joy at seeing who had made it,
and waiting for those that were on their way.
Joy at seeing those we didn't know that had made it.
Joy in general.

I can't wait till that glorious day.
When we are sitting on a warm beautiful day,
and talking like time and pain never occurred.  
Oh what a glorious day!
