Heaven – On the Occasion of All Souls’ Day

Heaven!

The other day – before I decided that after Deva and Orastie we will open more children protection centres – I had been thinking about that I had asked the Good Lord for my work that in the Kingdom of Heaven, where hopefully I will be given to live, there should be a nice lake, if possible with waterfall. I had been very pleased with the good bargain, and I am organizing with enthusiasm in Sovata and Cluj-Napoca, but now, on the occasion of All Souls’ Day, when I was deeply thinking, I came to the conclusion, that I had made a wrong decision. I feel, that God will not feel offended if I rewrite my final wish. I would like if there, where I am given to live in the Kingdom of Heaven, there was a huge window. I would be leaning on my elbows in the windowsill and looking at my nice large family.

Heaven!

I feel that my eternal life will be quite exciting. How the lives of the numerous children I got to know and loved , the lives of the lot colleagues and good friends will develop, form, who becomes what, who will make court to whom, and so on. So many thrilling questions; I forsee that I should ask for a hand with fifty fingers at least to have something to chew in the heavenly excitement.

Heaven!

Eternal rest? I think I will not have time for it as I am sure I will be present with praying love at a plenty of diplom-granting celebrations, the weddings of our children, the baptisms of our grand-sons and great-grandsons, on many joyful occasions and maybe at sad ones as well.

What is more, very slowly I have to go to the entrance door of the Kingdom of Heaven to meet each aging former child.

Heaven!

Of course, as I mentioned, I would like if the certain window was very large, if with time my colleagues leant on their elbows next to me in a row to be excited and happy together, seeing the unskilful missteps or great success of each of our children.

We would keep our fingers crossed and maybe as I know myself, I would even bet in the hope of a few heavenly kisses. And the large family like a great company would cheer the late comers, knowing it for certain that God definitely will place high all those, who fight the good battle and run their course.

Heaven!

I am a culpable man, but I try to pay for everyone for each piece of work honestly, as far as in me lies. I know that Our Lord is a much better patron. I know that He pays abundantly for everything what I did in His Name; I believe exactly for this that there will be the nice large window with padded windowsill . Moreover, I know for sure that there is the window already and it is not standing there covered by dust and with spiders’-webs but our loved ones who passed away before are looking out of the windows on us, maybe worrying, perhaps with joyful, happy love. I believe that of several windows, there are numerous of them, with hands are folded to pray peering down on us.

Heaven!

Our everlasting home, what it matters if here, on Earth anything is taken from us, if we know, that you, Our Dear Lord wait for us in your Kingdom.
