How far is Heaven?

What is it that we are waiting for?

What is this life?

Is it the eve of the eternal Sabbath?

The engagement period prior to the union between Christ and His Bride?

Sometimes I feel like I'm standing in the middle of a desert under the vast expanse of the sky, on my knees with my hands raised in submissive exasperation and I'm crying out "Where are you and what do you want from me?" Only to have my plea echoed back against invisible canyon walls.

I love Him.
