God the
Father's faithfulness towards us knows no limit. It transcends our time on
earth making us look forward to a time of unbroken communion with Him. He
proves this by giving us the Holy Spirit as a guarantee for what is yet to
come. Do you find it hard to imagine what heaven will be like? I do too – and
we are in good company.
· According to 1 Corinthians 2:9, who
can imagine what heaven is like?
One thing
that helps my limited mind is to think of a baby in its mother's womb. There is
so much that awaits her: the fragrance of flowers, the colors of the rainbow,
the embrace of her father and the feeling of freedom when running across an
open field. But the baby cannot imagine anything better than the warmth and
comfort of the dark womb. Compared to heaven, it is as if we were living in our
mother's womb right now. We cannot fathom what awaits us and we dread having to
go through death in order to see God, the light that never dims. Sometimes we
even worry that God will confront us with all our sins when we get to heaven.
· According to Hebrews 8:12 , how does God view our sins?
When we
arrive in heaven there will be rejoicing, not condemnation.
· Look up the following verses and
write a prayer of thankfulness for all that He has prepared for you: Revelation
21:3-7, Revelation 22:1-5.
He is
faithful - He will do it!
