Every Tear

Imagine a world where everything
is as it should be,
as it was meant to be;

no darkness,
no evil,
no fear,
no doubt,
no suffering or pain,
no greed or lust,
no jealousy or envy,
no sadness or anger;

only love.

It’s easy to speak about,
much harder to truly see,
in a world ruled by flesh and lust,
where everything is about
satisfying fleshly desires,
dominated by self-indulgence and carnal pleasure,
with fear controlling every thought and action,
trying to imagine such a world
is almost beyond
normal human comprehension;

but try anyway.

This is the world
which was in the beginning,
the world which shall be restored,
the kingdom that is to come,
where the One who lived
the only perfect life,
will sit on His throne and rule with justice,
protecting all who believe in
and belong to Him.

Where hunger and thirst
will no longer exist,
where the sun shall not beat
nor heat scorch,
where the Lamb shall be their shepherd,
leading them to springs of living water,
where every tear shall be wiped away;

forever.
