Because I cannot quite explain why, but my tiny heart pumps too fast when I think of big words like eternity, death, & forever. It has pumped so, ever since my care-free-est child days.
It is no comforting conversation to overhear bright theologians squabble over the details. It only shoots my mind, like a creamy-coloured cue ball, into ump-teen different trajectories. What about our families? & friends? & spouse(s)? & what of bodies? cremated, drowned, or buried bones?
"We'll all rise & return to Earth," some say.
"But wouldn't it get a little crowded?" what, with thousands of thousands of years & billions of shimmering bodies walking around?
& for always? Eating for fellowship, & not out of need? No sleeps? or sunsets?
& only harps & hymns & happy times?
I want to understand what it's like to love the Maker, & not just the Made. To know both would be best, I do believe.
But if I'm to keep up any sort of race, I'd like to check double that I am faced the correct direction.
