When Former Disappears...

We didn't know whether to laugh or cry last week after the 18th hole (what a riveting finish those last few holes were); we couldn't help but cheer for both Spieth and Johnson and therefore felt heartbreak and happiness. a picture of life; mourning and celebration juxtaposed...

Then feed today with laughter

And water it with tears

For soon it joins the aftermath

Of Past’s sun-shadow spheres

This slip of skin and dreamer’s dust

Determines so much more

Than momentary wanderlust

Hinged to an Awesome Door

And on the other side of it

Eternal eons roll

And no one is exempt from That

Home waiting for the soul

Then bend the knee with kindness, love

And bow the head in prayer

To God whose mercy blesses us

On earth with heavenly care

…and feed today with laughter, love

Or water it with tears

These are the things that God speaks of

Here, in love, we catch glimpses of heaven and in hatred, glimpses of hell...

God's love has made a way so none need miss Heaven. Have you found it?

Jesus said, I am the way, the Truth and the Life. No man comes to the Father but by Me. John 14:6

 And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain: for the former things are passed away. Rev. 21:4
