"Set our minds on things that are above, not on things that are on the earth." Colossians 3:2
Heaven...What if God came to you in a dream with an out-stretched hand and invited you to come with Him? You reach for His hand and in that moment, you see Heaven unfolding before your eyes. You think, "Oh" It's so beautiful! You stand momentarily, taking in the paradise before you. You think of pureness. You feel a sense of peace, comforting you, welcoming you. Every description you have ever heard about Heaven pales in the reality of what stands before you. You sense you have just stepped into eternity, a daughter of a King. You just entered His kingdom, a royal being. You feel in your heart a long awaited sense of being home...And then you wake up!! C.S. Lewis famously said: "If we find ourselves with a desire that nothing in this world can satisfy, the most probable explanation is that we were not made for this world." Heaven will seem more like home to you than the dearest spot on earth. God has served notice, He has decreed a family reunion. If Heavens Throne Room has a calendar, one day very soon is circled in red and highlighted in yellow...would you be ready? "What if?"
"Do not let your heart be troubled; believe in God, believe also in Me. In My Father's house are many mansions; if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you, I will come again and receive you unto myself; that where I am, there you will be also. John 14: 1-3.
Everything we do, every decision we make should be in the lens of Eternity.
