Forever Early

An angel appeared from nowhere. He looked like a tall young man in a blue uniform and he escorted the girl to a high spot overlooking the crystal river. Here were thousands of men, women, and children standing around a great tree with dazzling fruit something like giant pecans. At the highest point stood a towering lighthouse made of alabaster blocks. The lighthouse shined a warning light too powerful to look at directly, too powerful to ignore.

"Oh Sovereign Lord, holy and true!" the thousands shouted out together with one voice. "How long will it be before you judge the people of the earth for what they have done to us? When will you avenge our blood against those living on the earth?"

A resplendent female being emerged from the lighthouse. Her face was as bright as lightning and she wore shining white linen. On her shoulder sat a glowing baby squirrel and behind her came two angel-like assistants.

"Rest a little longer, until the multitudes of your brothers and sisters, fellow servants of The Son of Man, have been martyred on earth and join you here." The resplendent female being and her two angelic assistants passed out white robes to each man, woman, and child. The last in line was the girl from the black mist. The resplendent female being embraced her warmly then handed over a shimmering white robe.

"My faithful sister, the Redeemer of man and nature has seen fit to give to you a special welcome. For you gave everything to defeat the wicked nations of the world, therefore all and much, much more will be given back to you." The resplendent female being reached out her hand. In her palm a tiny human fetus glowed with life. "Soon we will return to earth to rule with Him!" The resplendent female being pointed across the mile-wide river to the constant lightning flashing across the purple sky.
