Noah Chisum Paints the Night

for my newest baby to be

Shalom Aleichem.

 

Noah, taught me that, it means ‘peace be upon you’. Want to hear something funny, my name is Noah too. We’re not related, well kinda we are cause God loved us both into existence.  I have been having a blast up here it won’t be long till I make my way down to the badlands of Oklahoma and on that day I will have so many new things to learn and an entire family to meet, you first of course. I’m sure they will all like me, because I already love all of them. 

 

I know some people find God the Father scary but let me tell you; He loves to play and have fun. Just today He stretched out the heavens like a tent and me and many others played by the Crystal Sea all day. He also cradles sunbeams to lie over the water, which is the best night’s sleep you will ever have. We rode a cloud and like a chariot afire it tore up and down the horizon and mine was the fastest. You may have noticed it for as the sun was setting on the earth below the sky was marked with bright colors of red, yellow and mauve.

 

It is really hard to play hide n seek up here in Heaven everyone is clothed in garments of light. Noah said it is the splendor of God that makes us all shine. I don’t know what that means, but I like it. No matter how hard I try I never get dirty that splendor is tough.

 

Wings of the wind carry me from place to place and show me things I must know. I go so fast sometimes the wind thunders in my ear with a loud roar. Noah and the boys are always busy singing to God, I sing some too, but at the end of the day as the sunsets on the earth below I want to catch a cloud and paint the night sky.  Once I grow tired of racing my chariot I will rest on a cradle of light, and dream of you. Sometimes I can hear your voice even over the wonders of Heaven. I hear you hum and sing and I especially like it when you rub your tummy and talk to me.  So keep on singing and before you know it we’ll be together.

 

Love your little Noah.

Very imaginative way to shake some people out of their rigid ideas about what heaven might be like. My favorite aspect is that you describe God as liking to have fun. I also feel Him more on a minute-by-minute basis, as if a fun companion sharing each little challenge & victory of my day, along the way . . . not some big entity in a high place. I love the way you SHOW this with dynamic imagery. To be honest, I was not thinking about the "expected child" aspect much, as I was more taken with everything else going on here! (((HUGS))) Fondly, Margie

The kids love the last day in Heaven stories that I've written for the grandbabies and I get caught up in the details of God's love the new life is taking along with them to us here below.
I love that you enjoyed this.
