Just A Glimpse
There shall be no more curse, but the throne of God and of the Lamb shall be in it. Revelation 22:3
How grateful we are for the wonders of the world that God has created for us as our home in time. Though blighted with evil and pain, the earth is full of beautiful things that dazzle our senses. Early some midsummer morning, take a walk in a flower garden and absorb its beauty and fragrance. Then think about all of its lovelinessa faint glimpse of heaven's glory.
Years ago I stood outside a cabin high in the Rocky Mountains. As far as I could see, all the peaks were snow-covered and glistening under the light of a full moon. What an overwhelming spectacle that was! Yet still, just a glimpse of heaven's glory.
Listen to the thrilling cascade of harmony in Beethoven's Ninth Symphony. Then imagine the rapturous sound of angelic choirs.
Our Savior assured His disciples that He would return to His Father and His eternal home to prepare a place for those who simply believe. It will be a place of such splendor that nothing on earth can compare with it.
The only requirement for entry is personal faith in Christ and His atoning death and resurrection. Trust in His sacrifice, and one day He'll welcome you into that glorious beauty and joy. Vernon Grounds
Brightest and best of that glorious throng,
Center of all, and the theme of their song,
Jesus, our Savior, the pierced One stands,
Lovingly calling with beckoning hands. Ludlow
Christ opens the door of heaven to those who open their heart to Him.

The Memory Box
It is just inside
the attic door
a memory box
sits on the floor
I steal away
to take a break
go through the box
for memories' sake
A pair of shoes
from baby, Dawn
a pair that Sandra
left toothmarks on
Two faded dresses
and sun bonnets
hand-made cards
with Mother's Day sonnets
My eyes mist
when an envelope breaks -
sixteen candles
from my birthday cake
A yellowed yearbook
from high school days
its pages worn
with dampness and age
A toy train, a pink
teddy bear ...
I saved them all
with special care
with hope, someday
by their attic door
a memory box
will sit on the floor.
