Not related... but I got a bug bite sometime this evening -_- Anyway, I've been thinking about Heaven and what it's gonna look like and be like. And I've been meaning to write this for some time now, but obviously I haven't done it till now XD
So, I've recently thought about Heaven in a different way that before. As a kid I always had this image of the whole "streets paved with gold" thing and Heaven being a rather boring place where we stand like in a choir and praise God and stuff. Which, I knew was still gonna be ok, cause I mean, its Heaven XD I wanna be with God, no matter how boring it might seem in an earthly sense. But, then a few months ago, I dunno what clicked, but I started thinking of Heaven as... well, "a new earth". That it was gonna be like it is now, just without all the bad stuff.
Adam and Eve experienced a perfect status of the world, and it wasn't all gold and boring, they actually had lives and did stuff and had fun and ate food and did stuff, so... why wouldn't it be the same later? Why can't we have a Heaven where we have jobs and have pets and go sky diving and eat delicious food and see movies and all that? Just, without all the sinful, unholy and ungodly things? I think that Heaven is gonna be a lot more familiar than we think, but of course, just amazing and sinless and we'll get to see God face to face! :D
Ever since I've thought of heaven as just a "perfect earth" I haven't been... as afraid to die. Not that I am, well not that I know of, but of course, as soon as you are born, you are slowly dying of old age... XD Sorry if you never thought about that and I just made your day horrible x"D But... I feel like before, when I thought of Heaven as good, but boring, I was like "God, please don't take me anytime soon, I wanna have fun down here." But then when I realized (assuming I have a better picture of it now) that Heaven was gonna be this awesome place, I haven't been as afraid, because Heaven is looking like a better and better place to be! XD Then again, I guess that whole "new earth" thing wont happen until Jesus comes back again and the final judgement and all that. But still, I've actually been kind of excited to... die. Cause, I really will be going on to a better place! Get what I'm saying.
Although, there is still that part of me that can't fathom "eternity" yet... and that scares me a bit, but it hasn't scared me as bad since I realized that Heaven isn't gonna be so "boring" XD Heaven is gonna be more like a second life that more amazing and has no end and we're gonna do fun stuff and have awesome "lives" (I guess) for all of "time" (?) Ok, I dunno how its all gonna work, obviously, but I think my new picture of heaven is a bit more accurate, and def less scary for me XD Cause I mean, my whole life I've thought of Heaven as not needing to eat or exercise or read or watch movies, and that's like my whole life! Especially chocolate! I want chocolate in Heaven XD And ice cream! Like, how can things that good, not be in Heaven? Come on. XD And, omg, what if we can teleport in Heaven? Like, we won't need to drive or fly, we just picture it or whatever, and we're there! :D That'll be soooooo amazing!
Ok, so I'm getting a little too excited about this now, I think I'm gonna stop here. But yeah, I've got a new picture of Heaven (or is it Heaven? Or is it a new earth? Are they the same? Is heaven only where you go when you die but there hasn't been the 2nd coming yet...? Anyway) and its great and I'm super excited! Of course... I gotta stay good. I gotta keep living a life that God approves of, otherwise... I don't even want to imagine Hell... 0_o Nooooooooooooooooo. So I'll keep my eyes on the prize! ^_^ So help me God!!!!
