ever wonder what Heaven is like?

[gym_class_hero]

sometimes I wonder if we can do stuff like watch a replay of our lives and how they would or could have turned out had we made different choices?

or actually live out a life we always hoped for but never happened? Id wonder what it would have been like to be the heavyweight champion or some singer whos concerts are attended by thousands?

I believe God has stuff prepared for us that will truly blow our minds.

"Eye hath not seen, nor ear heard, neither have entered into the heart of man the things which God hath prepared for them that love Him.”

I'm excited! God tells us what it will look like, and He also shares what some of the 1000 years here on earth first will be like. I'm so excited! I travel the USA and see it's glory that God created yet it's in it's fallen state! I work at not thinking about those I might know that will not be there, but recall God telling us that He will wipe away every tear. That means that if we do recall, it won't be sad memories or we won't recall the bad at all.

I look forward to constant glory of God Light, to walk and play with animals and travel lush scenery and landscaping ...fellowshipping with believers and Jesus Himself! I. Can't. Wait!

When I start thinking of ideas like yours, or even worry I may not like it, I think of that....I will like it, more than I know, and it is exiting.

I often wonder if it'll be possible to have my dream home, out in the country, constantly being landscaped with garden ponds, beautiful yard/whatnot. the actual house could be a cabin for all I care. After a million yrs or so, that yard ought to be taking shape.

Oh, and can I have all my cats back....forever.

I love to teach children classes on this subject. I lead the boys in imagining everything that's not safe to do here, because you might hurt yourself, or might die. But in heaven, they will be able to... climb the highest tree all the way to the top! --And then, jump!
They can climb on the back of a big lion for a ride, and hang onto his mane!
They can swim in the river of the water of life, and go way down to the bottom, and sit and look at the fish... and maybe blow bubbles with them... and they might even understand what the fish would like to say to them! (That's what I want to do!)

With the girls, I think more about things like... looking into Jesus's eyes, and seeing how much He loves us... asking Jesus all the questions we want (and He won't tell us to stop asking questions)... holding hands with Jesus, seeing those nail-scars that say "I love you that much"... climbing up on God's big lap, and resting our head on His strong shoulder... angels to play with... and little streams with jewel pebbles of all different colors... and flowers that never droop and die.

One child told me about 8 years after such a lesson, that he never will forget it. That day is when heaven became real to him.

Oh... I'm put in a very specific request.
I want to take care of some Jersey cows there, if possible.
I grew up on a farm, but cannot currently have animals. (landlord rule)
I miss cows so much it hurts.

What you call heaven, I call the resurrection, but yes I do wonder. My suspicion is that it will be like the "best of earth" or more beautiful.

Oh yes all my dogs are waiting for me! IT WILL BE WONDERFUL WITH JESUS!

Heaven is a SPIRITUAL realm. Its immortal occupants are the TRI-UNE GOD + angels + saved believers. Purpose: bring eternal spiritual glory to God.

1 Chronicles 29:11
Yours, O Lord, is the greatness and the power and the glory and the victory and the majesty, indeed everything that is in the heavens and the earth; Yours is the dominion, O Lord, and You exalt Yourself as head over all.

Revelation 5:13
And every created thing which is in heaven and on the earth and under the earth and on the sea, and all things in them, I heard saying, “To Him who sits on the throne, and to the Lamb, be blessing and honor and glory and dominion forever and ever.”

1 Corinthians 10:31
Whether, then, you eat or drink or whatever you do, do all to the glory of God.

Hebrews 12:2
fixing our eyes on Jesus, the author and perfecter of faith, who for the joy set before Him endured the cross, despising the shame, and has sat down at the right hand of the throne of God.

I never get passed the idea of standing there worshipping the Lord of Lords alongside the angels and other children of God. To just be there, surrounded by His Glory is too awe inspiring an idea that I can't imagine anything else. I don't think I would pay any attention to my surroundings for a millenia or two Earth time.

Revelation 5 and Revelation 21, among other passages, have wonderful descriptions; the Lamb of God Who was slain is wondrously glorified.
