A Test
[Inspired by Trillium’s… Where is Heaven?

Heaven to me is not a physical state
but, rather a spiritual plain.
We as mortals can never relate,
nor can we ever explain.
We rejoice in our faith of our God above
and give him the highest of praise
and thank him each day for his gracious love
till we see his “holy” face.
My goal in this life is to reach that place
of everlasting rest
but first this Earth is a mortal race
I suppose you could say, A test.

We are not human beings on a spiritual journey. We are spiritual beings on a human journey.... Stephen Covey

And many of them we do have, but after about a lifetime of them I find He's always been there. hehe Go figure...if I hadn't been so bent on doing it my way I would have saved a lot of heartache. It's sad that I had to find out the hard way...you know the school of hard knocks...well I graduated with top honors...hahaha I laugh now, but it wasn't funny getting there. But He's so good and faithful to us ..He never leaves. Sorry for the babbling. Loved this write, and if I knew how to go to the Library after I saved I would add to the library I just don't know how to find the "library" even if I did save it there. ? There is one other I did save, but I don't know this site so I don't know  how to find it. :?

Thanks for your comments.
