I got a really bad diagnosis from an oncologist, he is talking a year. Now I've been a Christian since my teens, so death is a one way ticket home when you think about it. So I started thinking about something I really had not thought of before. What is heaven like?
Harps, clouds, angels, loved ones, streets of gold, songs of salvation. I realized I had no idea, I was wondering what others might think. I've heard the beyond and back stories, floating above your body, seeing a light, being greeted by loved ones who went before.
Are we aware of what goes on back here? Can we visit others after death, just briefly before moving on? Does absent from the bidy present with the Lord mean we can have heart to hearts with the Lord? Can we meet the saints, are we assigned duties, or just wait patiently?
I'm not going to take anyone to task, surely you've wondeted. It's ok, feel free to speculate a little.
BTW, don't make a big deal over the poll, it's just some idle thoughts.
Grace and peace,
Mark
