Last Saturday, I was asked how sure was I of going to Heaven. I’m pretty sure there is a Heaven. I am going there one day. I have a lot of loved ones waiting for me there. What I want to do is be sure to be faithful while I’m here on this side. Can I have a piece of Heaven, here, now?
This Lenten Season, I’ve been loving everyone. Or trying to. It hasn’t been easy. There are jerks and rude people everywhere.
“Do I have to love them, too? ”
“Yes, them, too!”
or as Gpa would self-correct, “Yes, them, as well!”
As I ponder this thought, I see me reaching up and pulling a piece of Heaven down through the veil, experiencing just like Jesus said, “The kingdom of God is at hand.”
This world does not have to go to hell in a hand-basket. We, you and I, have the power to have Heaven, here, now, if we will love each other unconditionally. For sometimes you are rude and a jerk and sometimes I am. Let’s forgive each other and have a Heaven filled day.
