Over the Threshold

A NEW BOOK- The chapters in my book of 'LIFE', have been torn from wear. Now it has been put on the shelf of times past. A new book is in it's place, 'THE GOLDEN YEARS'. Chapter One has begun. I crossed over the threshold into the Golden Years, which society calls,'The best years of your life.' Every year, every day is the best with Jesus Christ.. No matter what the circumstances. Because He is with you. The things left behind were pulling me back. Just a glimps through the new open door and I had a different view. With clearer eyes it brought out, the beauty and the unseen, that you know is there, quickened my spirit to embrace each moment. Time has a new dimension, measured by my thoughts. in a world that is passing, a different era that is pushing the button on life, I can say, " It Is Well With My Soul." Yet I must not forget that the Rainbow only appears after the rain, tears shed Perhaps we should call our latter rain, Rainbow Years. The color white is invisible in the rainbow, the color of righteousness. When we step over from the threshold from the Golden Years into God's City and a new book is opened called, 'THE LAMBS BOOK of LIFE', the life eternal where no pain or tears exists, we will be clothed in the color that the Rainbow doesn't have. I pray each Chapter of my Golden Years will be filled with Golden strands of Art in it's Rainbows . That can only be found in Jesus Christ.

wow Edith, you have expressed your thoughts on the golden years (or, the rainbow years) so beautifully. Oh, I hope someday I can have enough faith to say, in any circumstance, It Is Well With My Soul. God bless you Edith. Hug
