One day I will be gone but "Not" ...I will be Alive! Yes in all reality I will truly be "Alive" ..More "Alive" than I am today! How Awesome" is that!
Oh how I long for this day to come when I will become a permanent resident in the Heavenly home I have been hearing and reading about in the bible for so many years.
As early as my Kindergarten class the Nuns would share this wonderful hope with us as small children "Heaven". A place where we will see God and Jesus every Saint as well a all relatives and friends who have gone before us. This place Beyond any words that can fully describe it's wonderment and beauty " Full of the Glory of God and His Angelic Beings! Sky's that never get dark, flowers that never die "Nothing ever dies In Heaven" Magnificently colored rainbows, clouds filled with angels glorifying our God day and night.
In the days prior to my Mothers homecoming. (going home to be with the Lord) As I sat with her she suddenly began struggled to sit upright to reach out and touch what she was so exited to see! She cried out for me to take notice in what God was allowing her to see. look! look!! aren't they beautiful. What she was seeing exited her out of her semi- comma sleep to be part of the "Joy" of an extremely "Precious"event!
Instantly the Lord revealed to me she was experiencing a glimpse of Heaven and its Angels preparing her to come home. They seemed to be beckoning her to come. I could tell by the way she was trying so hard to reach out and touch them.. Thinking back even now its easy to feel that same presence as my eyes fill with tears while I once again relive some of my treasured " last memory's"of Mom.
You see death is our last enemy. Paul speaks about it in (1corinthians15:26) Although the sting of death has been removed by the work of Christ on the cross and Jesus Resurrection , this place of passing still holds much apprehension and mystery in our minds.
These same Angelic hosts my mother saw will be there to usher us into the passageways of heaven. The instant death comes our spirit will depart from our body (Ephesians2:2) As Angels safely accompany us home. These realms of darkness are where the Prince of the power of the air resides and where the demonic enemy's of Christ dwell. This zone is carefully guarded by Angelic Hosts to protect and accompany each of us as we are returned to our final "Glorious" home with God.
Our Homecoming will be like nothing we have ever experienced here on earth. Christians should welcome and be exited at the closing of this dark place full of pain and sorrows in exchange for a "New World" filled with the Light and Love of our "Eternal God" Myriads of Angelic beings will be welcoming us as we are rewarded for all we have done while here on this earth! Big or Small it will all be accounted for with the Love of God.
So many precious Christians have been heard to say.. Oh how wonderful it is! And others with smiles and eyes glistening with the "Eternal joy" shining from their faces. Some have seen "Jesus" appearing with open arms. Some have even been carried by Angels as is in Luke 16 when Lazarus who laid begging for years and Years is now being carried by the Majestic Angels of God to be escorted home!
Needless to say" Gods beloved' " The Final Homecoming" Of a true believer! Is to be a time of "Joy Unspeakable" and full of Gods "Glory".!! As Angels of God sing and rejoice in his final " Coming Home"!
