I sat on top of a hill, for miles in front of me I could see rolling hills of green as far as the eye could see.
I looked and saw the castle it was magnificent. Again it's immense size took my breath away - it was hard to ignore. I could see that it was many, many miles away. It's towers blurred except two large towers that shot up straight into the sky above. A pure white haze engulfed it and I could see delicate flashes of the colours I could see before.
I looked to the right at the smaller less impressive town that was much closer yet was dwarfted in size. I could see something like smoke ascending, the scars of battle.
I noticed a familiar figure just behind as he sat next to me. He was not just small but very small, almost like hunched over physically but had a spiritual dignity and authority I had not seen before, he was very animated, had short brown hair that was separated by a massive bald patch. He had a long face, so long that it was clearly out of place with his small height and physique which was punny as his limbs made him look as skinny as a rake.
We began talking about the castle and the town, comparing the two.
I asked him what the buildings were like and how many of them were there as they had seemed to numerous for me to count.
There are many rooms in our Farther's house he said, there are many building too in this castle. The buildings are streams, denominations, generations, nations, spirits and ministries of the Kingdom. They seem like they are too many to count because there are too many too count.
What about the two towers.
Ah they are the heart of the Kingdom but for know they are not for you to see. He had a wicked sense of humour and he cheekily smiled at me as he said this, but you will see in due time. Nudging mein a playful way that only a friend would dare to.
I would certainly like to see some I thought.
So be it he said knowing what I was thinking.
Then were taken and were in the castle and I could see a small chapel before me. So small it was easy to ignore amongst all the massive building. It was very plain and seemed it reminded me of my first ever church I went to when I was a child though there were parts to it that were very different. Before me I could see a small entrance, like the back entrance of this church I had known. I looked up to the left and there was a very small steeple. Then I could see to the right there was another steeple. This was massive and stretched so high up to the heavens that from where I was standing you could not see the top of it.
It reminded my of the two towers.
I was then inside the chapel, it looked very much like my old church but it was very plain and instead of rows and rows of pews it had less than the church I knew. I then turned to look at the altar and the section of the church that the altar lay in. I could see the most ornate carved wood and everything in this part was overlaid with Gold. It was so glorious that I could not believe if I saw Solomon's temple that it could look more glorious.
I had a sense of more latter... that I would be returning here then I was once again stood outside.
I could see there was a little engraving done both in and with something that seemed to be beyond human comprehension, understanding or even ability to make. It was very small, square, made of I didn't know what but it shined like the sun. The four sides were chiseled and two simple ornate pattern's was engraved on it, underneath was a simple lampstand and above was a flame..... I was then taken back to the hillside once again starring at the Castle's beauty and splendour.
