Do you imagine heaven as boring? Do you see us
sitting on clouds playing harps? Don’t believe it! We will have bodies, real
bodies that will never wear out. When Jesus appeared in the forty days
following the resurrection, He suddenly appeared in a room without walking
through a door. He cooked fish on a beach and ate with His disciples. His body
had flesh and bone and doubting Thomas could feel and see His wounds. (see John
20 and 21)
We will
have responsibilities and be able to move freely without limits of time and
space. Your wildest dreams and imaginings will not be able to bring into focus
what will be our home in heaven. Keep eternity in mind. Our short life spans
are nothing in comparison. Store up treasures in heaven. Work for Jesus and not
for yourself. The rewards will be great.
But
as it is written, “Eye has not seen, nor ear heard, nor have entered into the
heart of man, the things which God has prepared for those who love Him. 1
Corinthians 2:9
Father,
No eye has seen nor ear heard what You have
prepared for us because of Jesus. Our humble service on earth will mean
something in eternity. Keep us focused on those eternal rewards which will be
given by Your Son.
In Jesus name,
Amen
