i saw this vision when i was praying one day...

I was in a vast, barren and desolated desert. When i looked up to the sky, it was shades of red. The earth was a horizon of brown. At the far end of my eyes, heaven and earth met. The red of the sky and the brown of the earth blended into one. i took another step in my wilderness towards the point of divine-human union. My feet were padded with dreams and hopes, buffeting me from the scorching reality. The trails I left behind were soon blown away by the winds. I had no idea, how far i had travelled nor do i know how i came so far. The only stark reality was my refuge laid ahead of me. i had no idea how long nor how far more do i have to travel before i arrived at my final destination. In spite of the uncertainty, deep in the chamber of my heart, i heard the voice of the Omniscient assuring me of fulfillment and reward.

My reward lies not in the future but in the voice and the Person with me NOW! God is more interested in the means than the ends. In fact, means are ends in themselves. Dreams that God had etched into my heart belong to the future. Fulfilling my responsibilities today is the path to my future.
