To Heaven

"Enter in thy good and faithful servant"

A queen for a day,a child of God forever.

One Step Closer

Just one step closer to Christ my King
One step closer to those streets of gold,
Just one step closer to all my loved ones
One step closer to seeing the saints of old,

Just one step closer to my Heavenly Father
One step closer to His pure and precious love
Just one step closer to hear the angels sing
One step closer to my Lord and Savior above,

Just one step closer to being free at last
One step closer to no more sorrow or pain,
Just one step closer to my heavenly mansion
One step closer to all I will have to gain,

The last step I now have finally taken
And Jesus has placed on me heavens crown,
I'm covered by His goodness and righteousness
In the glory of my new heavenly white gown.

A baby asked God,"They tell me you are sending me to earth tomorrow, but how am I going to live there being so small and helpless?"
God said, "Your angel will be waiting for you and will take care of you."
The child further inquired, "But tell me, here in heaven I don't have to do anything but sing and smile to be happy."
God said, "Your angel will sing for you and will also smile for you. And you will feel your angel's love and be very happy."
Again the child asked, "And how am I going to be able to understand when people talk to me if I don't know the language?"
God said, "Your angel will tell you the most beautiful and sweet words you will ever hear, and with much patience and care, your angel will teach you how to speak."
"And what am I going to do when I want to talk to you?"
God said, "Your angel will place your hands together and will teach you how to pray."
"Who will protect me?"
God said, "Your angel will defend you even if it means risking its life."
"But I will always be sad because I will not see you anymore."
God said, "Your angel will always talk to you about Me and will teach you the way to come back to Me, even though I will always be next to you."
At that moment there was much peace in Heaven, but voices from Earth could be heard and the child hurriedly asked, "God, if I am to leave now, please tell me my angel's name."
God said, "You will simply call her, "Mom."
