I have always loved watching the sunset. I do so every chance I get. There is something about it that stirs my soul. I sit and watch as the sky becomes a tapestry of ever changing colours. Blue, white, yellow, gold, red, orange, pink, and purple all weave together to create something so beautiful and so glorious that it is transcendent. When I look at it for a brief instant it is like I am getting a glimpse of Heaven. It isnt just sunsets, though, that can give you a glimpse of Heaven. With a loving heart and a grateful spirit you can see that they are everywhere. They are in a babys laugh, a little childs smile, in an uplifting song, and a beautiful painting, in the first flower of a young plant, in the cool breeze on a hot day, in the colours of the rainbow, and in the first snow of Winter in those countries. They are in a heartfelt hug, a gentle touch, and in an encouraging word. They are in every loving thought, every prayer from the simple soul, every simple act of kindness, every single act of charity, and in every joyful Thank You you give to God. Anything that brings us closer to love gives us a glimpse of Heaven. Any act that helps another soul gives us a glimpse of Heaven. Any thought that makes us more one with God gives us a glimpse of Heaven. In fact, our highest CALL in this life is to bring as much Heaven as we can down here to Earth. When our hearts are full of Heaven, then Heaven will be our home in this life and in the next.
