Heaven

I had a dream a few nights back about heaven. I don't remember a whole lot about it - at least not streets of gold, or gates of pearl. What I do remember is how I felt being there. Joy is the only way I know to describe it. It wasn't just being happy, but also satisfying like getting a drink of water after a hard day's work, or finally getting a fire started on a very cold night. My thought was that if my mind can get such an amazing glimpse like that during sleep, then how much greater when it really happens - the time about which God said "no eye has seen, no ear has heard what God has in store." I'm also reminded of Revelation 22 and Philippians 3:12-14 (I leave those for you to look up). It'll be worth it, both here and there. How I want to be there, and how I want everyone to come with me. Come Lord Jesus, come.
