Heaven

So I just started reading "Heaven" by Randy Alcorn. This book answers all types of questions about heaven. I remember being in Sunday School as a young child and hearing about heaven and angels and the harp music. As I've gotten older I've always wanted to go to heaven but every once-in-awhile a thought comes to me wondering if maybe heaven would be a little boring if all we every do is sing and listen to harp music. Within the first chapter of this book this very thought was mentioned as a myth. Heaven is going to be full of so much more. Reading this book makes me long for heaven so much more than I did before. The logic he uses to explain the bible references makes me wonder why you never hear pastors preach on heaven this way.

I think it's fun to try to imagine what heaven might be like. All I know for sure is that it's where I really want to be and where I hope all my friends/family will be. This world isn't all it's cracked up to be. I'm so thankful for the promise and hope of heaven.
