Todd's Poem ~ Eternal Existance

Darkness, then, inner peace, a sense of release from the flesh covered cage that's held your eternal form from escaping to it's ultimate and chosen destination. A destination chosen when the soul that once inhabited that shaped and molded form that was just abandoned, to accept the free gift of everlasting life that was handed to me by our ultimate and only true father, who constructed this earth and its surrounding distractions, down to the gentle creation of the costume upon a butterfly's wing. To love Him is to be loved, to sin against Him is expected, to repent is to be forgiven, to believe in Him is to be saved....


Then light, the soul fills with a harmony that if described by words would insult it's very essence. Then a shape is formed before your new eyes that see past any minuscule sights your earthly eyes had ever hoped to see. The figure is a blurred form that was unrecognizable to these eyes, but your heart knew who that was before it ever came into view. It was He, the King of Kings, Lord of Lords, and Master of all fates. To see His face is to fulfill a life long desire that surpasses all desires. His presence filled your eternity and expanded your mind to the uttermost realms of existence, and replaced all doubts and fears of the world with peace and understanding.


Your soul was escorted by the Messiah to your new realm of existence, a plane of reality, that was never conceived before, to look around is to see the ultimate and true definition of paradise. Here you reside for your eternal existence, where you are filled with joy, peace, comfort and sense of a rich pleasure that never fades and only grows with great intensity with every passing second...


...You are left there in that ultimate state of contentment with one question_____ Why are we allowed to exist in this atmosphere of perfection when it is obvious we are undeserving of it? That answer lies within each of our hearts, where we keep our most precious beliefs and it is this that got us to this literal heaven...faith!
