(561) My Vision

Lying motionless supported by a soft bed of grass, my thoughts ran wild, endless thoughts from the beginning of my life to the end and beyond. My eyes opened wide as I lay in a pre slumber state. The most amazing vision unfolded right before my eyes, clouds began to move in every direction, a kaleidoscope of colors burst into view. The clouds descended to the earth floor gently creating forms. I couldn’t believe my eyes, a stairway took form, at the top of this remarkable stairway, clouds began to dance and take on more shapes. Yes shapes of Angels and instruments, harpsichords, violins, trumpets and more. The Angels took their instruments and began to play, oh the music was a beautiful setting, a serene, peaceful atmosphere, filled with tranquility. My body felt weightless, relaxed, a euphoric feeling yet I was wide awake now taking in all the beauty of this tremendous display of heavenly works. At the bottom of the stairway, I saw a mist like shape taking form in a long line, soon this shape took on other forms, yes forms of people were all in a line. They glowed and sparkled in their beauty, covered in silvery white shimmering folds of crystallized tulle. At that point I realized, these were the people who had just passed on and they were going toward the stairway to start their journey up to Heavens gate. The Angels soared above them as if counting them to make sure they were all there. Hovering over them, continuing to play the most beautiful music ever to be heard. One by one each person lifted their hands up high as they started up the stairway, then a light at the top of the stairs shone, the brightest light you ever did see. As each person reached the top of the stairway, they disappeared into the light. When the last person reached the top, the Angels gathered and they slowly faded into the clouds. The stairway also faded away and the clouds took their place back high in the sky. My body began to shake as the heavenly spirit took over. I stood up and raised my arms to the heavens and prayed out loud to my Lord, I thanked him for this marvelous vision, I dropped to my knees and continued to pray as I’ve never prayed before. The tears ran down my face as I laughed and bathed in the essence of his glory. This was one of the most precious gifts the Lord has given me. He taught me, death is not to be feared, it sends you on the path to heavens stairs and a way to find that glorious light to the kingdom of paradise. God continues To plant the seeds in the landscape of my mind, therefore I will have no fear, no despair, no hesitation, I will not try to hang on here by the use of human mechanics. I will graciously move forward and take my place at the bottom of heavens stairs and await my turn to take that final walk, up those glorious stairs to the light of heavens gate For the rest of my days on this earth, I will continue to thank God for this remarkable vision.
