“Stand up if you want to go to heaven!” the preacher exhorted his congregation. The worshipers rose as one, with the exception of a man in the front pew.

“Are you telling me you do not want to go to heaven?” thundered the preacher.

“When I die, yes,” the man responded. “But I thought you were getting up a load right now.”

We all want to go to heaven, but none of us are eager to get there. Like the front row guy, we want to wait until we are old and gray. This coming week we are going to examine heaven in this blog. What are you expecting in heaven?

I’ve been thinking about heaven alot lately, because my grandma died recently and I think about her everyday. Death seems to bring these types of issues to the forefront of our minds. My kids have many questions that make me think too, because I usually don’t know a good answer to anything they ask. I’ve been questioning a number of things I’ve always believed, wondering if what I think I know is actually true. Mostly, I just wish I knew more about heaven, but God must have His reasons for making it such a mystery.
