The Dream

Last night I had a wonderful dream in which I was flying high.

My body and spirit were one with each other as I traversed the clear blue sky.

Just as I thought I would surely see darkness in the vacuum of outer space.

I saw two arms reach for me, a man in a white robe but I could not see his face.

I kept watching for the blackness to envelope me as I raised high above the land.

However, the darkness never came and I now focused on a hand.

It was reaching for me and voice so sweet was beckoning me to join him.

I took hold of one hand and the second as I heard Angels singing my favorite hymn.

The music became louder and louder but I didn’t mind its sound.

I rose further into his loving arms and he said, “You were lost but now you are found.

The music of the Heavenly Hosts was too beautiful to describe with words.

It was by far the most beautiful sound that I had ever heard.

I found myself crying out, “Dear Lord, please take me for I am yours.”

But he answered, “My child today is not the day for you enter through Heavens doors.

I still have work that you must do and kind words that you need to say.

So return, my son and give love to all you meet on each and every day.

Bare witness to my Son Jesus Christ and teach the words he spoke.

When the time is right I will come for and that was when I awoke.

I lay in my bed for a long time thinking of the wonderful, glorious dream.

I found myself praising god, for my soul has truly been redeemed.
