Divine Lunacy Rests Up

Good evening, my cherubs. Happy Sabbath! We have made it through another week and that means only one thing! We are one week closer to Home. When I say Home, I mean our Heavenly Home. I'm so excited that I can hardly sit still. I am looking forward to the day that we take the ride of a lifetime with our Savior. I received an e-mail yesterday that had pictures of galaxies taken by the Hubble satelite. Can you imagine? When we take that amazing trip we will see these galaxies up close! WOW!!! I like to contemplate what it will be like in Heaven. Now, I know that a lot of people have the idea that we will be sitting on our very own cloud and strumming our very own harp for eternity. Wrong! But thank you for playing! The only cloud I know of will be the one we arrive on. And as for harps...nary a harp in sight, but under every tree...a banjo! No, I'm kidding. (I got that last bit from a CD called "Grandma and the Sea of Glass") There is going to be so much to do and see and experience that we will wonder where to begin. That is, after the initial meet and greet with God, Jesus, and our guardian angels. That is something else I am looking forward to. That first great banquet with all our brothers and sisters and with our Abba! My mouth waters at the amazing delights that He will have prepared for us. And all of it natural and purely organic! Woo hoo! I look around at the things happening in this world and it breaks my heart. People loosing their jobs and their homes; loosing a sense of who they are because of it. Now, think of Heaven. A mansion built specially for each of us; designed by the Grand Architect knowing exactly what our likes and dislikes are (although I don't think we will have any dislikes in Heaven). Property that will belong to each of us and no banks to forclose on us and throw us out. We won't work, but spend our time praising God and exploring worlds and galaxies; playing with the magnificent animals that will inhabit the Kingdom. A few of the things that I want to do when I get there: Meet King David and talk poetry. I want to meet Deborah, the only female prophet mentioned in the Bible. I want to meet Rahab, the reformed prostitute who's lineage is tied to Christ. I want to talk to Peter about walking on the water and ask John the Baptist what locusts taste like. I want to slide across the sea of glass and be bounced on God's knee. What do you want to do when you get there? Who do you want to meet? What do you think your mansion will look like? Think about it and revel in the fact that we serve a God that wants nothing more than to spoil us with His love. Well, it is time to get to bed. The King's Heralds will be singing for our service tomorrow. Oh, there'll be joy in the morning! Good night my pets, my darlings...sweet heavenly dreams. Viscountess Babbles On
