I'm not shaken by the terrible things that happen in this present life,
because I know that a better life awaits me.... I know that I will spend eternity in Heaven with God.. He will dwell among His people as He did with Adam in the garden (WE GET TO ACTUALLY SEE GOD WITH OUR EYES!!!!)... In this second life, there will be no more crying, no more death, no more pain, no more sicknesses, no more cancer cells taking away our loved ones, no more child abuse, no more rape and molestation, no more fears, no more worries, no more stress, etc.. "for the former things have passed away." (Read Revelation 21:1-8). Heaven will be wonderful! 1 Corinthians 2:9 says ""No eye has seen, no ear has heard, and no mind has imagined what God has prepared for those who love him." .... Think of the most amazing sight you've ever seen (in person or on Google lol), Scripture reveals that whatever we've seen can't even COMPARE to what we will see in Heaven! And our bodies will be changed, fashioned after the "glorious body" of Jesus Christ (Philippians 3:21).. Even the animals will get along! Read what Isaiah 11:6-8 (ERV) says.. "[6] Then wolves will live at peace with lambs, and leopards will lie down in peace with young goats. Calves, lions, and bulls will all live together in peace. A little child will lead them. [7] Bears and cattle will eat together in peace, and all their young will lie down together and will not hurt each other. Lions will eat hay like cattle. [8] Even snakes will not hurt people. Babies will be able to play near a cobra’s hole and put their hands into the nest of a poisonous snake." .... Ever wonder what it would be like to ride a grizzly bear, or play wrestle with a mountain lion? Well this too will become a reality in God's Heaven.. Never will we become bored at any given moment... Psalm 16:11 says "You make known to me the path of life; in your presence there is fullness of joy; at your right hand are pleasures forevermore." Salvation is a free gift of God through faith in Jesus Christ (Ephesians 2:8-9)... Those who believe in Christ, who have accepted His sacrifice in payment of their sins, and who follow Him in obedience will spend eternity in heaven. Those who reject Him will not ....... Do you receive this gift? Comments are closed.
