Heaven Is Our Goal

Teach us how short our life is, so that we may become wise. Sometimes we need to be reminded that Heaven is our goal. Heaven is not far from us—out there in the great beyond, light years away; But it’s as close as the wink of an eye, Just one blink The flick of a finger A fleeting glance One breath A single heartbeat One moment in time A tick without the tock And voila! We’ll be there. In the twinkling of an eye We will pass from earth to heaven. Our loved ones can’t come back to us, but we can go to them. But each of us must be ready. Teach us how short our life is, so that we may become wise. (Psalm 90:12 GNB)
