A Glorious Picture...

The last couple of nights have been prayer nights at my home church. I love being able to encourage one another by praying together and worshipping God in a smaller setting; it's all a little bit closer and more tight knit. These prayer nights are what church is all about; building each other up and getting passionate about the things we want to see happen.
After the prayer portion of the night and after a quick pint at the pub I watched The Time Traveller's Wife (sad film), once it finished I took the short walk home and it was on this walk that I had the most amazing picture.
(I was walking in the road at this point looking at the houses, listening to the peace and quiet-there is just something so freeing about walking in the middle of the road late at night/early in the morning...)
As I walked down the road I just thought to myself;
'One day every one of these houses will be filled with rejoicing.'
Just imagine it:
Whole streets filled with songs of worship and the constant chitter chatter about what God has done in each other's lives. I can't wait. I can't wait to see everyone waking up on a Sunday morning walking and driving to their churches, greeting one another on the way. One day dancing in the streets just because we are loved by the King of Kings. One day I will see my street rejoicing and praising God and what an amazing day that'll be. Just imagine the party!
