- This Week's Dear Ones -

I CAN'T WAIT

Dear Ones, Each day that dawns on this earth is another day closer to Heaven.  Each breath that we take is another breath closer to eternity.  How long do we have to wait?  We can’t know, but we can hope… we can trust in the promises of Scripture. Listen, I tell you a mystery: We will not all sleep, but we will all be changed–in a flash, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trumpet. For the trumpet will sound, the dead will be raised imperishable, and we will be changed.  For the perishable must clothe itself with the imperishable, and the mortal with immortality.  When the perishable has been clothed with the imperishable, and the mortal with immortality, then the saying that is written will come true: “Death has been swallowed up in victory.”   “Where, O death, is your victory?  Where, O death, is your sting?” The sting of death is sin, and the power of sin is the law.  But thanks be to God! He gives us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.  Therefore, my dear brothers, stand firm. Let nothing move you. Always give yourselves fully to the work of the Lord, because you know that your labor in the Lord is not in vain. I Corinthians 15: 51-58 NIV So until that day… we stand strong, we hold tight, we move forward.  Our day will come and what a day of rejoicing that will be! Looking upward, Sandy I CAN’T WAIT I can’t wait to see the lights of Heaven I can’t wait to see the Prince of Peace I can’t wait to walk the streets of Glory And run and play, in the Crystal Sea On that day, my trials will be over On that day, my pain will melt away On that day, I will see my Jesus And hear the voice of my sweet Savior say Come, my good and faithful servant Come, your struggle now is done You have fought courageously in battle Today, your victory is won I can’t wait to visit with the likes of Moses I can’t wait to see King David face to face I can’t wait to rest with the lion and the lamb And with the angels, to sing Amazing Grace On that day, my trials will be over On that day, my pain will melt away On that day, I will see my Jesus And hear the voice of my sweet Savior say Come, my good and faithful servant Come, your struggle now is done You have fought courageously in battle Today, your victory is won Sandy Moffett © 2008
