Rushing toward Eternity

W e're rushing toward eternity

When from time's grasp we will be free.

Life is brief.

So flies pleasure as well as grief.

Quickly the years bustle by,

How foolish to think this moment

is all there is!

As the years quickly whiz,

Ponder this reality:

We are plunging,

   hurtling

      dashing

         rushing

             toward eternity.

And as it is appointedunto men once to die, but after this the judgment: Heb 9:27

Looking Forward 

It's getting closer.

It's getting nearer!

This putting off of the veil of flesh.

This exchange of the earthly view!

As a caterpillar sheds old clothes

to replace its cocoon with wings of flight,

so I anticipate resurrection

and welcome the approaching morn --

 promise of eternal light.
