May This Dance Never End

I waited for you

And you came to me

You met me

At the Holy Mountain

The glorious spot

Where we usually meet

Your smile was sweet

Your look was captivating

Your face was radiant

Your countenance was charismatic

Your garment was sparkling

Your skin was translucent with light

And

Your fragrance was

The oil of heavenly love

You cleansed me

Washed me

And transformed me

You pointed towards my dirty grey rumpled garment

And in the twinkle of an eye

My gown was transformed to

A glorious heavenly white ball gown

Decorated with strips of gold

It was studded with diamonds

Rubies, sapphires, jasper, emerald, amethyst and onyx

I felt an itch

On my left arm

Just below my wrist

And I scratched

And felt something

Popping out from inside my body

And out of my skin

I pulled it out

And behold

It was a golden shawl!

You took it from me

And gently

Draped it

Around my neck and shoulders

In great ecstasy and shock

I exclaimed,

“Jesus! My Lord!”

I shuddered

And I wept for joy

I knelt before you

In great adoration

And worship

You opened your arms

Then, I got up and rushed into your strong, powerful arms

You held me close

And I held you tightly

Like a daughter

Lost and found

Then I got drowned

In your fragrance

And heavenly perfume

I felt rapturous praise

Erupting from my inner

Being like an unstoppable

Volcano

Threatening to engulf me

In its awesome intensity

Of heavenly love and passion

I looked into your eyes

And I fainted

And fell at your feet

At your great power, love and glory

You picked me up

Like a little child

You led me to the highest mountain

And we danced

We danced and danced

As we became one

And you filled me

With your Holy Spirit

Heaven screamed with joy

The saints rejoiced

And angels sang

Sweet, golden Hallelujah

The melodious song

Of heaven

Titled,

“You’ll never find another love

Like Jesus Christ”

Reverberated and filled the air

I whispered and groaned deeply

Into your diamond

Studded robes

Loving its feel

Hiding my face

In it’s glorious fragrance and warmth

“Lord of glory

May this dance last forever and never end.”

My eyes were pleading

And my face was bewildered

My breath was short

And gasping

My face was twisted

With the agony of

Knowing that

I was incomplete

Without your constant infilling

My groan was from

The pit of my belly

As my whole being shook

And reverberated

With a need beyond words

You raised my bewildered face towards you

To look at your face which radiated with great light

And my eyes shifted away from

Your eyes

In childlike shyness and confusion

I felt so unworthy

Because I was

Experiencing

Heaven on earth

And I felt ashamed of my awkward shyness

You smiled

and you said to me

“My child

I love your shyness

Wait upon me

Seek my face

Walk in my ways and will

Flee every appearance of evil

Rejoice in me always

Celebrate my love

Thank me in every circumstance

And pray without ceasing

And you will always dance

With me and in me

There is a price to pay

For my glory

Which is my dance

But when we meet in Heaven

You will

Always dance with me and in me

And rest in my arms

And love for all eternity

You bent your head towards my face

And kissed my right cheek

And said,

“I love you.”

Then you disappeared

Jesus!

You are fairer

Than ten thousand

And none

Can compare to you

May your Church

Delight to always

Dance in you

And constantly experience

Your great glory.”
