Thinking of Heaven

I've been thinking alot about Heaven these days. About what it will be like and seeing loved ones who have already gone there.
We had a friend who passed away in the beginning of June.
She really struggled with a bout of cancer , but throughout her last days she knew that she would soon be seeing the Lord. Her Pastor and several friends and family stood around her bedside in her last moments. They all saw how sick she was and noticed her eyes, how yellow and sickly they lo0ked, but when she passed into Glory, her eyes popped open and they were so bright and clear and beautiful! She saw Heaven and the Lord,we are sure!
My Grandma, also passed away some time ago and my mom said that one day she was in the room with her and Grandma asked her if she heard someone singing, my mom said no she didn't.
I'm sure that she heard Heaven's choir singing! We can't even imagine what we'll see. I know one thing ,it will be more beautiful than we could ever imagine.
Our one comfort in this world, as it gets farther and farther away from God , is that someday we will go HOME and see Jesus! What a wonderful thought to think on. Lift up your heads for your redemption draweth nigh.

Thinking of Home,
