Yes, Heaven — the absence of sin and the presence of God. We bought Heaven for Kids by Randy Alcorn for our boys. Very interesting and easy to read, not to mention informative.

What a great definition of heaven! I hadn’t thought of it like that either.

Lisa,

This is huge. I had to be told before I realized the same thing, but nothing else besides God himself could be wonderful for eternity.

There is enough of him and enough excellence in him to explore, enjoy and rejoice in for all eternity. Not only that but we will get to share that experience with millions of others who think it is the greatest thing ever.

I had not thought of the place vs presence paradigm and its parallel to the church. I’ll have to use that, with due credit of course.

Thanks for an encouraging note.

Joseph. My favorite Old Testament character. God truly does know better than we do…we just have to trust Him. Sounds so simple. Why do we struggle so. I love you, my daughter. Keep casting all your troubles on His shoulders. He IS able to bear them.

Wow! I remember the day my son went through baptism. What a wonderful thing for you to see three of your angels take that step. All our love and prayers

It sounds like you had a wonderful day and I’m sure you were beautiful, too.
