He is There


For I am persuaded, that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come, Nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.   Romans 8:38-39
Then I saw “a new heaven and a new earth,” for the first heaven and the first earth had passed away, and there was no longer any sea. I saw the Holy City, the new Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God, prepared as a bride beautifully dressed for her husband. And I heard a loud voice from the throne saying, “Look! God’s dwelling place is now among the people, and he will dwell with them. They will be his people, and God himself will be with them and be their God. ‘He will wipe every tear from their eyes. There will be no more death’ or mourning or crying or pain, for the old order of things has passed away.”   Revelation 21:1-4
the time draws near,
the journey almost at an end,
home is just beyond the distant horizon,
lying only a heartbeat away,
and I am ready;
He is there waiting,
ready to make all things new,
removing the darkness,
wiping away every tear;
the pain will pass,
the doubt will be removed,
the suffering will be no more,
the night will be turned to day,
the joy shall be forever;
He is there waiting,
ready to make all things new,
removing the darkness,
wiping away every tear;
the words fade away,
time passes like a dream in the night,
these prison walls crumble into the dust,
all things will be as intended,
all things will be made right;
He is there waiting,
ready to make all things new,
removing the darkness,
wiping away every tear.

  1. This is a wonderful writing! The gift of Jesus Christ's death and resurrection is the promise of eternal life for believers. Although I'm not significantly ill, I am old and the horizon for my homegoing is nearer but I don't fear that because I know God will never leave me nor forsake me and that He waits for me when this temporal life ends. What a friend we have in Jesus!
