Been thinking a lot about heaven, and missing some people lately. And in God's providence this old piece I wrote popped up. Thought to share. Maybe it will help someone. Wrote this about my uncle right after he passed in 2021.
You're Home
But deep inside my heart I know;
That you are home forever more,
Dancing on Heaven's shore.
That all your pain and heart aches are past,
And you're with Jesus safe at last!
Even though I miss you so,
Oh what sweet peace to know.
That you are in the arms of God,
And times there are never hard;
I will see you again someday,
When the Lord calls me away.
We'll be reunited home at last,
So till then, to God's promises;
I'll hold to fast!
~ 2021
May God bless you all richly.
Yours in Christ, Delanie 🐝
so beautiful! thank you!
What a Mighty God we serve! The Holy Spirit speaks wonders through us when we don’t allow the flesh to lash out. What a glorious day that will be! A wonderful blessing to look forward to. ❤️
And just a cool little note:
The reference to dancing in heaven, was from right after my uncle's passing, [at his bedside] one of my aunts; who had made it very clear that she didn't like my God. Said to me, “Aren't you mad at your God, that you'll never get to dance with him at your wedding? You're the only niece he didn't get dance with.”
To which God in His grace gave me the ability to respond calmly, “No. I'm not mad. My God, will let me dance with Uncle Bobby in heaven. And there he will have a new body that can walk and talk perfectly. I'm completely fine waiting. It will be all the more sweeter!” [ for he was handicapped on earth] then told her the Gospel again.
What a wonderful God we serve!💕 Praise the Lord all you His saints!
