All the ends of the earth will remember and turn to the Lord, and all the families of the nations will bow down before him, for dominion belongs to the Lord and he rules over the nations.  

All the rich of the earth will feast and worship; all who go down to the dust will kneel before him — those who cannot keep themselves alive. Posterity will serve him; future generations will be told about the Lord. They will proclaim his righteousness to a people yet unborn — for he has done it.

(Ps 22:27-31)  

Reflections  

The weight of death recedes.

Called through darkness,

What has come to birth?  

Like a multi-faceted diamond

Worn, but polished

By the light of faith,

Crystallized

By quiet confidence

In death

And life, never-ending

I bow before a blinding gleam of glory.
