“However, as it is written: “What no eye has seen, what no ear has heard, and what no human mind has conceived”— the things God has prepared for those who love him—”
1 Corinthians 2:9 NIV
Not much is written in the scriptures about what Heaven is like. We get a fair amount of information about what it is not: no sin, no sorrow, no suffering, no death, no disease, no doubts and no fear. Heaven is the final creation of all that is supremely good and nothing that is evil or bad. We have a hard time trying to realize what Heaven will be like yet we have glimpses all around us in God’s creation. Sky’s that look like they are on fire or mountain ranges that show off his majesty. Yet Heaven will be even better for our eyes have not seen the glory of what our Lord has prepared for those who love him.
I get real excited to know that Jesus has gone ahead to prepare me a place in heaven. On top of that, he has promised that someday soon he will return for his saints . Heaven is the perfect creation of God’s love, his wisdom, his power and his holiness. It will be a place that functions in his majesty because our God is there. We get to revel in his presence , enjoy his grace and experience an eternity in his kingdom .
The best I can do is say it will be amazingly amazing, wonderfully wonderful, perfectly perfect- beauty beyond description. I cannot wait to there with my Lord. But, in the meantime, we should be about his work to bring all we can with us to this glorious place! It is going to be awesome!
In Christ
