Home is Heaven

Negative sure is positive in this case. Praise God! After 10 days of waiting for my surgery results; it turns out that NOTHING turned out. Thank-you Lord! The swollen lymph-node was nothing but a natural reaction to a past inflammation and carried nothing harmful. I was getting nervous in the waiting room (2 hrs & 12 minutes) what an anticipation. I began realizing that the results of those tests could truly change the course of my life here on earth. If you've ever waited for serious medical test results you know what I'm talking about. However, an hour into the wait... I was showered with a joyful peace and was reminded that no matter what - I was headed home: Heaven. Yep, thats right...Home is Heaven. Now don't get me wrong, this ain't no "Emo" depressing post. God's not done with me here on earth, but I sure am ready. Are You? I walked into that Dr.'s office with upmost peace and confidence that God had me in His hands and that His plans for me are far better than anything I could imagine. Life is good, but heaven is much better. We're nothing but aliens/strangers simply passing through (1 Peter 2). No matter what results might come my way in the future, I know I'm on my way out. It was so good to be comforted by God and reminded that Christ suffered so much pain on my behalf to ensure "The Way" to heaven. Do you call Heaven Home?

"Home is heaven, One day Lord I will live, In Your courts You'll find me, In worship at Your feet." - Marty Sampson (Hillsong)
