I always wonder what heaven is going to be like. All I know is that it's the most majestic and glorifying place in the world. The Lord will be there and; Abraham, Moses, Jonah, Peter, John and so on. Will there be bright green grass? Animals of all kinds? Baseball? Football? Soccer for Kimmy? Who knows. I'm going to tell you a story that may hold some of the answers. Once there was this man, and he was in a hospital, dying of old age, and some diseese. He was about to die, then out of the blue he kept asking his wife, "Do you see all them angels honey? Do you see them?" His wife just looked at him strangely. "Where honey? Where are they?" He looked at the ceiling, smilimg. "Right there, silly." His wife said to him, "honey I don't see them." He looked confused and looked again and said, "look, there are some kids running in the grass! They're playing a game. Haha. Look honey!" his wife looked at him and said, "Honey. I can't see them, so why don't you just tell me all about it." He looked a little sad, that she couldn't see, so he spent a couple of hours just telling her what they were all doing. Than he gasped and started to tear up. "Honey it's Jesus! He's calling me," he sobbed. His wife looked at him and said, "it's okay honey. You can go to Him." He cried and hugged her, told her that he loved her. Then hloding her in his grasp, he closed his eyes, and waited. Slowly he breathed his last breath, and then he was gone. Just like that...I hope that when my time comes, that I can have such a sweet moment as this man did, with his wife and children. More importantly, getting to witness heaven myself. While still alive, before Jesus calls me. I hope this was encouragement to those of you who are struggling to hold on to your faith. It's all worth it in the end. Trust and believe. Stay strong in the Lord. Have a great day as you bask in God's love for you! God Bless.
"In my Father's house are many rooms. I am going there to prepare a place for you. And if I go, to prepare a place for you, I will come back, to take you to be with me. That you also may be where I am. You know the way to the place where I am going."
John 14: 2-4 (NIV)
