Heaven on Earth

The title of this post is used often by people that tend to describe a favorite place of their's that has a special meaning or beauty to them. Yet, in all reality NOTHING on this earth is even close to that of Heaven. Only God knows what Heaven is like and His children will one day experience Heaven when we spend eternity with Him.

Though, I will admit that I feel like I had a little taste of what Heaven may be like this morning. It's been about a month since I have had the opportunity to spend time in a normal worship service with my church family; between calving on the home farm, Easter Sunday outreach service, and helping a buddy on his dairy farm. Needless to say, I greatly missed my church family and was very grateful to see them this morning. Yet, I was overwhelmed with the number of people that came up to me and talk with me; wondering where I had been, missing my input in Sunday school, missing me around the coffee table, etc. It wasn't til this afternoon, that it kinda hit me that that was a taste of what Heaven could be.

Heaven is going to be nothing short of a party. Really. An eternal time of fellowship and worship with brothers and sisters in Christ WITH Christ himself, what could be better than that??! Golly, it is going to be a great time and I am definitely looking forward to that time. As all the children of God will be gathered in one place ALL the time, we won't have to wait until a worship service or gathering to be together. Yes, a little overwhelming to think of, but so AWESOME at the same time!!
