From imagination to reality; looking heavenward by Gary Rose

No, this is NOT a bomb! It is just a natural cloud formation that was posted on a local Florida news program. With all the bad things happening in the world, I can understand how someone could imagine this being an explosion.

Clouds are wonderful; my earliest memories are of clouds- in the shape of horses, dragons and of course- Mickey Mouse!!! To this day, I enjoy seeing all sorts of shapes in the heavens and once-in-awhile, letting my imagination run wild on purpose. You know- just for fun!!!

Now, I wonder, what IF your wildest imaginings came true?

Consider this passage from the book of Mark....

Mark, Chapter 14 (WEB)

 ⁵⁵ Now the chief priests and the whole council sought witnesses against Jesus to put him to death, and found none.  ⁵⁶ For many gave false testimony against him, and their testimony didn’t agree with each other. ⁵⁷ Some stood up, and gave false testimony against him, saying,  ⁵⁸ “We heard him say, ‘I will destroy this temple that is made with hands, and in three days I will build another made without hands.’”  ⁵⁹ Even so, their testimony did not agree. 

  ⁶⁰  The high priest stood up in the midst, and asked Jesus, “Have you no answer? What is it which these testify against you?”  ⁶¹ But he stayed quiet, and answered nothing. Again the high priest asked him, “Are you the Christ, the Son of the Blessed?” 

  ⁶²  Jesus said, “I am. You will see the Son of Man sitting at the right hand of Power, and coming with the clouds of the sky.”

If I am alive when this happens, I am quite sure that at first I won't believe it and will rub my eyes just to make sure I don't have something in them and maybe even pinch myself to see if I am just daydreaming. But, Jesus said it, it will happen and someday my wildest dreams will come true. On that day imagination will be reality and hope will be fulfilled. I wonder- can you say the same??
