Eternity Is Going To Be Fun!

Each time I ponder this very thing, the passage of scripture you shared with us comes to mind. I know that all of us have witnessed a work of God in this life that we experience a loss of words to describe, and for me that has been our Father's undying love for His wayward daughter. 

It's too precious and holy to sully with my words! So, remembering how the Lord blessed us even while we see darkly and know only in part at this present time, there is something He has promised to us when the time comes. This is so significant to me because for all of my life, there always comes a time when I have to go. 

Here is His promise:

The one who overcomes, I will make him a pillar in the temple of My God, and He will not go out from it anymore; and I will write on him the name of My God, and the name of the city of My God, the new Jerusalem, which comes down out of heaven from My God, and My new name. (Revelation 3:12 NASB)

The time to leave will never come again, and I will never have to go. Being with Him for eternity is the greatest honor I could possibly dream of. It's too precious and holy for my words!

Wonderfully said, brother!

It will be so wonderful to finally belong perfectly somewhere —our forEVER Home.  Thank you, M.
 

in Christ, Selah

I neglected the fun part! I'm convinced that what awaits us is going to be so fun, that we could write and write about it (or talk the ears off each other) until it's time to go home. 

Here's what's going to be so much fun: meeting the apostles. Can we imagine that? I've always said that Paul is our eldest and dearest friend, so meeting him is going to be a treat like no other.

Oh, and for me especially, I can't wait to meet Agur, the author of my favorite Proverb (30).

Well Since God knows my musical talent does not exsist  I can almost guarantee  there will be no fluffy white clouds and harps for me  nor will I be calling enoob " uncle " .I cannot even imagine how  God can keep so many different souls happy and content  ( it is hard to keep half a dozen children from having something to moan about lol )   and I can only pray that we are all changed into better  " beings " as here  on earth  humans are so not the nicest of beings towards one another   I most look forward to being reunited with my two sons that have gone before me   and having all tears wiped but I also look forward to God cleansing my heart and my thoughts of any lingering resentment  for people that have harmed me and I know that although I have forgiven them I have not forgotten and that is something I REALLY want to be able to do

A heart ❤️-felt thank you, lady, and to all who have posted thus far.

I think we will be in a constant state of worship and wonder while being very busy. Not idle at all.

The universe is large and I think will be filled.

God works and so will we.

I think.

Afternoon @Selah7 😊

I must confess that when I think of our Eternal Home, I guess the word 'fun' has never come to mind... 

being with our Lord, in complete Peace, Joy, Worship, Eternal Rest, being completely free from this world of sin and it's devastating effects...just some of the things I'm looking forward to 😊

Here’s something to pause and meditate upon …. selah  

I don’t think any of us have any idea how much fun eternity is going to be.  I wonder just what kind of excitingly awesome things our Father has planned for His kids.  Now I don’t imagine we’ll be floating around on fluffy white clouds playing little harps, though it might be fun for a while; but before long, we’d get totally bored because the eternity is an extremely long period of time!  So what does God have in store for us?  Eternity will undoubtedly exceed our wildest dreams because …

Thus saith the Lord: 

But as it is written, eye hath not seen, nor ear heard, neither have entered into the heart of man, the things which God hath prepared for them that love him.

- 1 Corinthians 2:9 (KJV)

So, what do you think we’ll be doing in the Eternity?

in Christ, Selah 

Eternity is going to be amazing.

The one that will be fun for me to meet will be Ezekiel.  I enjoyed his book in the Bible.  I also enjoyed Daniel.  So I look forward to meeting him.
