Sunrise

The sunrise is gorgeous here this morning. The sky is lit with oranges, pinks and purples. The kind of sunrise that doesn't even make sense to try to capture in a picture - it's best to capture it in your mind and heart instead. It strikes my heart with a sense of wonder and peace at the same time. A reminder that God is in control. That there is beauty in the midst of the pain here in this life.

Now when I see a sunrise, I wonder about the beauty that G is experiencing in Heaven. Is the sky like that all the time? What kind of colors are there in God's presence? What kind of awe and wonder and peace and joy fill G's heart now that he's with Jesus?

The sunrise is already fading. Quickly. Much like the joyous moments in this life. But it doesn't fade in Heaven. G's joy is complete and eternal.
