We Will Dance!

In the midst of the insanity that life is sure to bring us, there is always one sure thing. Our longing for home, and all that word means. To be at our home with the family and friends we love and all things familiar. It brings us rest, rejuvenation, elation, security, joy and comfort.
But what I am talking about here is our home. Our true home. The one that comes after the struggles of living this life. Take a moment to think about it. This world wants to water down what it means to "go to heaven." The world talks of it being just that sweet wonderful place in the sky people go when they die if they are good. But no! It's SO much more than that!
Can you wrap your mind around it? We get to be in the presence of HIM. Not just some famous guy who will give you an autograph in your book and shake your hand. But the ONE. The creator of all things. The creator of your most passionate feelings and emotions. The creator of all things that bear descriptions beyond our ability. Can you fathom feeling the overflow of emotions that are too overwhelming for us to feel in our human forms?
Can you imagine a place where we are not ever longing? Not ever hurting? Nevermore feeling the pain of watching someone you love die? Not ever ...alone? This isn't just a place where we get all we want, people. Where we just get to wander around aimlessly never needing or wanting for anything. It's not about just being able to play, rest or be with others we loved in this life. This is a place where we will be with the ONE for eternity. We will forever be able to worship, UNSEPARATED with our father.
We. Will. DANCE.
