Come Quickly
As I drove home today, I listened to this song and I was in tears. I look so forward to the day when we go to Glory! It was a rough day for me. School started back. Hectic and I was weary by the time 5:15 hit. Just listening to this made me long to go back to PA to see Robbie's gravesite. We have not been there in over 17 years. He's in Glory! Wow, he's the lucky one. Although his site is only a stone and memorial for us, I miss going there. I think hearing the song just tugged even more at my heart to be there too.

Brenda,
Your post reminded me of a conversation I had with Nick just after Jesse died. I was telling him how I longed for Christ's return so that I could see Jesse's face again. He answered that he too longed to see Robbie's face, but he wanted to see Jesus's even more. Those words have stuck with me for these past 9 years, and as time has passed, I now feel what he was describing. It's eternal rest I long for; Christ's presence I yearn to enjoy, and our children to finally enfold in our arms once again. Thanks so much for your post, and for pointing my heart toward heaven this morning.
Vicki
