I know, we think our lives are so special on earth. We want to put off dying because we don't want to leave this life. And yet that is so stupid for those of us who are Christians and know we're going to be spending eternity in Heaven. I guess it's because we haven't had the experience of Heaven yet, so we don't know what we're missing. I bet if we could spend 1 whole minute there, we wouldn't want to return.

We enjoy watching House Hunters and see such amazing houses. Drool city! But none of them can compare to what's waiting for me in Heaven. And I hope there are lots and lots of flowers there - flowers everywhere! There will be no allergies!

But for today, God has chosen for me to be here so I will do what I can to please Him and make the most of today. Even if I'm not leaving the house.
(Very obviously, I did not take any of the above photos!)
Amen. Thanks for the reminder.
ReplyDeleteGreat thing to be reminded of! I like to think of not having weight problems, no allergies, no knee issues and for you - no lung problems! Of course once we are there, I think that will be the least of our reasons to praise!
ReplyDeleteWhat a precious reminder of what is to come for those of us that are Believers :) Some days this world we live in truly makes Heaven seem that much sweeter. But until He calls me home I will enjoy the life that He gives me here on earth.
ReplyDeleteSometimes I sooooo long for our heavenly home... but for now, I'm going to try to suck out as much "life" as I can on this earth! Be Blessed! :)
ReplyDeleteYou'd be really suprised. I was SOOO terrified to have to be gon 3 weeks. It left him in charge of his boys for 2 of them and then our daughter the last 1.5 weeks...I was very very afriad. But man he just did what he had to do. Now granted he probably didn't do EVERYTHING I would have done, but he did it and they are all alive and well. So I can't complain (except about the flowers lol)
ReplyDeleteYour comments on heaven are so right. I sure none of us would want to come back here...
ReplyDeleteBeautiful!
ReplyDeleteI hope you are doing ok....:)
Take care,
Jada
