Joy

"You make known to me the path of life.
In your presence there is fullness of joy.
At your right hand are pleasures forevermore."
Psalm 16:11

When I think of the pleasures of being with God in heaven, I envision smiling babies, beautiful music, miles of grass, flowers, tree, streams and mountains.

I see myself climbing a huge mountain, swimming with whales, playing in snow, having a picnic by the sea.

I see myself visiting with family, giving a dinner party, dancing to any kind of music I like, talking with Jesus and hearing his words of wisdom. I see my self flying off to explore the universe: every star, every planet, every nebula.

I know we can experience the joy and pleasures of God here on earth, and I do that.  But Heaven is what I look forward to with a deep longing in my soul. For heaven is what we were made for.
