Just thinking-again

I am quite convinced now that we are indeed living in the "end times"... This comes not from private revelation or any such thing but from reading whats out there, approved church commentary and just talking to many, many people who are feeling the sense of dread that I do.  There is a sense of foreboding, a sense of something coming and its not good.

Now that said, I've been doing some thinking again.  I don't want to be around for the end times, think most feel the same way, who would?  But on the other hand it means heaven is that much closer! It means that we are some of the last humans God has ordained to "create" to have the option of enjoying heaven. Wow! Aren't we blessed!  Its scary and wonderful at the same time. Its caused even more focusing on the wonders of what awaits us in Heaven.

 I was thinking of all the things I'd love to do here on earth but most likely never will get to enjoy like decorating 100 houses each with its own theme, unique and wonderful.  I was thinking of all the hiking I've missed over the last 20 years due to well a negative other half.  I was thinking of all the things I've missed not have a regular computer for all the research I'd love to do... I was thinking of all the books I'd love to be able to enjoy if only there was time for ALL of them.  Then it hit me! I bet Heaven has a huge library there filled to the brim with books of all kind of facinating things. In my mind I see a surprise waiting when you open any of these books.  I see instead of pages before my eyes the book coming alive.  I see myself and anyone else going for a real live adventure in the book! Its better than a computer, its better than just sitting and reading! WHY NOT! the eye has not seen the ear has not heard! Why do we limit ourselves?  Re: my decorating I see God allowing me to have my hundred houses to decorate with no limit on a budget and using "otherwordly" materials to create the most incredible dream homes ever!  I see every dream I dream and wish for coming true in such incredible ways! WHY NOT?  I want to  hike? Why not fly? Why not fly over vista's like none have ever seen without my fear of heights, why not?  There is so much there, waiting, like Christmas morning... If we can just finish the race. It will all be so worth it, just keep the faith...I want to see you there!
