Love without measure; Space without time
Life with no crying; Will one day be mine.
Hearts never breaking; Hands that don't fight
Days that don't end with The darkness of night.
The lamb and the lion Will walk side by side
in a world where freedom abides
Friends that don't leave you; Smiles that don't fade
Nobody's hurtin' - No one's afraid.
No hungry children; Loved ones don't die
No sad farewells; There'll be no more goodbyes.
All the burdens and longings We bring to this place
Disappear in the moment We look at the love on His face.
That's what heaven will be like,
That's what heaven will be.
These are some of the lyrics from Michael English's song "Heaven". Isn't it wonderful to think that one day we will be in that wonderful place?
This weekend, we learned that a friend of ours had gone on to be in the arms of Jesus. Times like these always bring back memories of personal loss. Loved ones who have gone before us. While here on this earth, we mourn our loss, our loved ones are resting in this marvelous place where there is no struggle, no sadness, no hunger, no pain. While our lives will never be the same and our loved ones will never be forgotten, we thank you, Lord, for the comfort in knowing that they are home with you.
