I'M Here

I awoke in heaven this morning And I wanted you to know That my passing, my dying Was just part of life's natural ebb and flow. There were so many here to greet me And while I'm missing family and others I'm surrounded, loved, and cherished By so many sisters and brothers. Every moment here is new There's so much to tell of each day Living here in His presence In that love that won't go away. This is such an exciting journey As I wait for you to arrive For the spirit-filled peace and comfort Gives new life to being alive. Just as told in time of old He is my strength, my staff, and rod, And I'd rather be no other place Than here in the presence of God. by E. Marshall Evans
