I was reading about the wedding..  
you know the one where Jesus changes the water into wine....   
see John 2:1-11   

Not sure how many times I have read or heard the story....   

But something struck me differently this time round....   

You know...   
When the master of the banquet tastes the wine and 
declares to the bridegroom that  
something novel 
something new  
something that doesn't make sense 
but is a wonderful surprise  
just happened....
'You saved the best wine for the last'

and I realized that this miracle
is actually a 'foretaste' of Heaven's surprises...
That amazing wine was served
at the END of events

and that God plans Amazing things
for when everyone is tired
or fulfilled
or even Bored...

.... the Kingdom STOPS the train
and makes everyone sit up
and
Wonder
at what super cool Heavenly thing
just happened...

and I realized
that God has
AMAZING plans that swirl around me....
right up to the END

Lord,
Thank You for teaching me
to WATCH for Your Kingdom surprises
at the end of the 'party'
when I am ready to 'go home'
and am maybe even 
tired or
bored.... 
- You have a treat planned
that is extra...
A Blessing from Heaven.

Lord,
I choose to
Open my eyes for it
Open my expectation
to 'catch' it....
and see the miracle
of the 'best for the last'

Yeah
I'm watching for that :)
