I was explaining the Gospel of Jesus to some kids at VBS last year and I asked them how many of them wanted to go to Heaven. They all raised their hands. Then I asked, “So, what do you have to do to get there?” And a little boy raised his hand and shouted out, “Be dead!”
I guess he’s not wrong. That is definitely part of it. But the Bible teaches us that we will actually be more alive than ever before when we get to Heaven. It will be a place of worship and awe but also adventure and fun. We know there will be no more tears or sorrow or pain. And that sounds pretty good right about now, doesn’t it?
Colossians 3 tells us to set our minds on things above (Heaven) so we will do that this Sunday at Christ Fellowship, morning and evening. I really hope that if you are reading this (and it didn’t go to spam) that you will consider joining us. It just makes all the difference when you are there. We love you and miss you when you are gone.
Did you hear about the lawyer, the senator and the used car salesman that died and went to Heaven? Oh, never mind. That one is too unbelievable.
