Thoughts of Heaven

I want to write on a subject God has placed on my heart! I feel like God is offering us the one thing that he thought we would all yearn for. A place with no pain, hurt, or tears. Isn't that what the world is always striving for? Peace. If we could live and not have pain wouldn't that be perfect? So God created that perfect place, heaven. But who wants to go to heaven? Well initially we all would say we do, right? But do we want to be there because that is a place we can be with God for eternity with no pain? I heard some one say once that every one wants to go to heaven, they just don't want to God to be there. We all have this idea of what heaven is. Some of us are afraid we won't like it or we will miss our earthly things. But God has taken the time to careful construct a place that we will enjoy for eternity. Why do we doubt the awesomeness of God? We like it pretty well here on earth, we enjoy a lot of things that God put here for us, but we still have pain and sorrow. How much more better will heaven be? A place for us with out the pain and sorrow!!! God is not going to construct a place that is less enjoyable than earth for us to live in for eternity! We think with our earthly minds so it is truly hard to grasp what God can really do. So search your heart. What is it you really think about heaven?

Revelation 21:4
And God will wipe away every tear from their eyes; there shall be no more pain,
for the former things have passed away.
