Every Soul Waits in the Wings
On the Christian awaiting the resurrection:
Every soul waits in the wings.
Every life taken in age, tired and ready, taken in youth, in shock and sorrow, taken in pain or taken in peace, every needle now hidden in shadow waits in eager silence.
I see my cousin. My nephew.
Many faces, forgotten by those who followed behind, known always by the Author who needs no stone reminders.
He is the best of all possible audiences, the only Audience to see every scene, the Author who became a Character and heaped every shadow on Himself.

MAN i can’t wait to see Jesus! Long for that day when death’s sting is finally removed and we awaken into everlasting life. Maranatha!
