Fields of Heaven (for 5.24.12)

I walk up the mountainside.

“How much farther, Lord? I’m growing weary.”

“Not much longer, my child, just persevere.”

The mountain begins to level out, not completely, but the incline lessens and the path becomes greener. I reach the crest of the hill. What I see takes my breath away.

The sky is amazingly blue, unlike any color I’ve ever seen. The grass and trees are so vividly green; it’s like I woke up and am seeing everything for the first time.

“Thank you, Lord, for bringing me here!”

“Well done, my faithful child. And welcome to your new home!”
