You are doing so well, I sense it now..
you are being blessed, I know
Of a truth, blessed by wondrous love.
There's something extra special about being
called to loss, as Jesus holds you close..
I know it hurts too much
to think about it now at all..but
I wonder what God has in store for you-
Just around the bend, something very precious
to which you are called.

There's something special about closed doors,
something of a mystery unfolding
walking from known yesterdays
To walk on in the light-
something wonderful, needing all of Jesus,
to walk in through the night,
to gather from every moment's loss,
to live in loss,
that it be not loss, but gain-
when love has orchestrated change.

You're already walking in heaven's gold,
while you cry, tears of tender trust-
there is only dependence and reliance,
there is only love, there is only Jesus.
You cannot lose all that is forever..
you miss, but never lose-
when you feel the joy
it is most glorious- in His perfect love.
You will be nearer than ever before-
Only wonder lies behind the door..

We need to leave open the windows to the glory,
instead of being incited to a hugeness of faith
by what Christ has already done for us,
There is more, beyond that first foretaste that satisfies us.
We need not camp on the confines of the Kingdom,
but press in further to inherit, what is meant for us,
what we need this day.
