Rambling.
I love to read, Barnes & Nobles is officially my favorite bookstore, Im like a kid in a candy store! I recently picked up a book called "LOVE WINS" by Rob Bell. As I reached deeper into the book I was completely just in shock. This book opened up my eyes to a deeper meaning of life. Heaven, everyone always talks about whats there, what it'll be like, etc..Streets of Gold, Big Mansions, as if the best God can come up with is Beverley Hills in Heaven. Heaven, a place where the "believers" go when you die. Eternal life doesn't start when we die, it starts now. Its about a life that begins at death, (and by death I mean the way I used to live, when I didn't believe) experiencing the kind of life now that can endure and survive even death, How we live today, how we act, our actions towards others, to survive the new life to come we have to be able to act as if it were already there, here, today. Peace, Love, & Joy. If every single person was nice, lovable and peaceful to you, everywhere you went, wouldn't that take some getting used to? For me, it would. As Christians we have to let the world see us as Christians, firm believers in Gods graciousness. The day when God's will would be done on earth as it is in heaven. The day when earth and heaven will be the same place. Our Emotions, peace, love, security could be our Heaven now, today. To be prepared and ready for the new life to come. Gods Life, perfect, peaceful, joyful, Never ending. I know what Im trying to explain but it might not make that much sense to you. Just think about it.
