Soon and very soon
My King is coming
Robed in righteousness
And crowned with love
When I see Him, I shall be made like Him
Soon and very soon
Soon and very soon
I'll be going to the place He has prepared for me
Then my sin erased, my shame forgotten
Soon and very soon
I will be with the One I love
With unveiled face I'll see Him
There my soul with be satisfied
Soon and very soon
Soon and very soon
See the procession
The angels and the elders round the thrown
At His feet I lay
My crowns, my worship
Soon and very soon
I will be with the One I love
With unveiled face I'll see Him
There my soul with be satisfied
Soon and very soon
Though I have not seen Him
My heart knows Him well
Jesus Christ the Lamb, the Lord of heaven
I will be with the One I love
With unveiled face I'll see Him
There my soul with be satisfied
Soon and very soon

freedom.
today is 4 july 2009. here in the states its independence day. all across the world americans are drinking beer, eating hotdogs, playing by the pool, and watching fireworks and i cant help but think about what it is in us as humans thats causes such celebration.
maybe its cause we have known about this whole idea of freedom from the very beginning. maybe the story of being owned by someone or something else and then someone outside the situation swooping in and saving us has been written on our hearts since the first breath we took. its playing out all around us. its the air we breathe. and its the most beautiful story ever written. its the story of redemption. the story of being set free.
we were completely owned by sin and death. enslaved to that which only leads to death. and we couldnt and cant do anything about it. and jesus. being rich and mercy. because he loved us so much that he sent his son to save us...make us alive together with christ. he made us a new creation in christ, created to do good works. to walk in freedom and in life and in hope and joy and peace. he has set us free. really free.
so i wonder if there will be fireworks in heaven...?
