This is Not the End

Happy Monday!!!

Hello, hello, hello, and happy Monday! The weekend flew by, and here we are again entering a brand new week full of endless possibilities. Though there is a great deal of darkness overshadowing our world right now, hope can always be found not only in the little things but when looking at the big picture; I’m talking about eternity.

Sometimes I forget that there is more to life than the here and now and when I get stuck in that mindset it can get quite depressing. Thankfully because of what Jesus has done for us we can look forward to an unimaginable eternity full of wonderful things if we put our trust in him. This leads me to today’s poem. 

Today’s Poem

Today’s Poem is about the ageing process and how fun that can be. 😉

Sometimes it’s easy to forget that we don’t have to be stuck with ageing skin and a body that is slowly becoming run-down. Death is not the final picture in our lives, and we have so much more to look forward to within the scope of eternity. It’s a breath of fresh air to remember the great things that God has planned for us once we leave this world if we trust in His Son.

Here we go! 

This is Not the End

Looking into the mirror

Seeing myself looking back at me

Noticing the effects that ageing brings

And feeling a sense of hopelessness

About mostly everything

Thinking of the years that had passed

And knowing I couldn’t get them back

Something stopped me in my tracks

And I remembered once again

That there was something more

This wasn’t going to be the end

An eternity awaited

Which would bring renewal

And a new life

No more lines across my face

No more pain that couldn’t be erased

Instead, a new existence of hope and peace

Filled with love that would never cease

And as I looked in the mirror again

I chose to think of my reflection as my friend 

And I could face the day again 

Knowing this was not the end

It’s so good to know that there is something more beyond this life. No matter how many years are behind us that we wish we could redo or return to, it helps to know that the best is yet to come. 

Until next time, stay safe, and be blessed!
