How Beautiful

I can get discouraged when I try to comprehend

the afterlife in front of me, the time that has no end.

The Bible has descriptions of what waits beyond the pale,

and depending on my choices I may pass or I may fail.

How beautiful beyond compare the gift from God we’ll see,

when we’re welcomed to his presence, to enjoy eternity.

Some people who have nearly died may have some clues to share

about a Christian’s future home, and what we may see there.

Experiences which they gained weren’t easy to describe,

when they’d returned to here and now, but many of them tried.

The picture that most seem to paint when back from the above

includes the very common theme, we’ve heard that God is Love.

We’ve read those words in scripture, so we shouldn’t be surprised

that our promised life with Jesus will be more than we surmised.

How beautiful beyond compare the gift from God we’ll see,

when we’re welcomed to his presence, to enjoy eternity.

Yes, beautiful beyond compare the gift from God we’ll see,

when we’re welcomed into Heaven, to enjoy eternity.
