It is finished! Have you ever had the reality of that? Some great work, some enormous task, some ongoing joy, some long road leading to terminal, some fight, some loving embrace, comes to an end. I had one late yesterday afternoon. A long, unimaginably wonderful, adventure came to an end. There are a few loose ends that must be knotted off, a few jots and tittles, but the great journey is over. I laid it down, turned one last time, and looking back, said, “thank you.” Now my view is around the bend, over that next rise, Fair Haven, where I will winter out my greying years with my lover. Oh the joys of a God who is so kind to give us great tasks done with great people, I can’t see them yet, they're just around yon bend, but I know my Father has prepared a coming good work for me…and I have turned my eyes once again, to the trail which lies ahead, up the lovely slopes of The Wonder Mountain.
