Do you ever stop and think about what Heaven will be like? When I was young I use to think about it all the time…and I do still even today. Of course, the most exciting thing is that Jesus will be there. But I think the second most exciting thing is that we will be with our families and loved ones.
Yesterday we had a lot of friends gathering for a "family reunion" as we celebrated my grandma's life. Yes, there were tears, but it was a memorial of HOPE, as we have the resurrection to look forward to. I can't wait until that heavenly family reunion when we will all be together in person.
The Bible tells us:
At the close of the program, I played a song "The Family Reunion" that I put together with pictures for my grandma. (If you've ever lost a loved one, or are homesick for heaven, you will really appreciate this song!) But it wasn't just that. In this slide show, I also shared a final message that my grandma recorded for her family….months before she died. I thought some of you, even if you didn't know her, would enjoy seeing this! (It's short!)
Blessings on all as you start a new week!
Review:
- Bible Thought: Looking forward to when Christ shall descend from Heaven with a shout to take all of us home.
- Blessings: That we have this HOPE!
- Battles: That we not let go of Christ, for if we hold on to Him, trusting in His blood, we will be part of this heavenly family reunion very soon!
