I can’t imagine, but I’m
trying to picture the long-awaited moment, when after a life-time of serving a
God I have never seen but have believed in and loved with all my heart… I will
finally meet Him face to face.
When my time on this Earth
comes to an end, whenever that may be, I will be ushered into His Presence. I
will hear his audible voice for the first time, calling me by name. Oh, how
sweet to hear my name spoken by my Love, my Father, my Friend. I will
run to Him with outstretched arms, unable to hold back the tears of joy and
relief. I will throw myself into His mighty loving arms, the arms that have
brought me comfort my whole life. I will finally feel his strong tender hands-
the hands that have led me through the joys and heartbreaks of life- holding me close against His chest. I will
soak it all in. The sound of His voice, His smell, the sight of perfection. I
will slowly fall down at His feet - feet that were nailed to the cross while He
willingly surrendered His life in exchange for mine. The very act that made
this moment possible.
Finally after a life-time
of believing that Jesus is real, that Jesus is the Son of God, that Jesus is my
Savior, and that Jesus is preparing a place for me in Heaven, my faith is
rewarded by the reality of it all. Finally, I get to see with my own eyes, hear
with my own ears, feel with my own hands the wonder of it all. I express with
relief, “I knew it was true. Somewhere deep in my heart, I just knew every Word
was true.”
And I will worship my God. My heart will burst with the most complete
and utter joy. My soul will sing. I will be overwhelmed by His Presence. Everything
will be right at long last. Perfect fulfillment, glorious worship with my
Savior and all the inhabitants of His Kingdom… forever.
