Heaven is Real!

I've been reading a book called "Heaven is Real" lately. The gist of it, is that there was a boy that had his appendix burst and was on the brink of death and later shared with his family that he had been to heaven. Now the boy wasn't even 4 years old when this happened, and the things that he was sharing with his mom and dad are amazing. Now whether this happened or not, it has sure given me a different perspective on heaven. The one thing that really hit me, was when after this incidence happened, the young boy went with his pastor dad to visit a dying man, and he looked the man in the eyes and said not to be afraid because the first person he will see will be Jesus. What an awesome thought, to know that when we pass from this life to the next, the first person we will see will be Jesus. Before Steven died from being stoned, the first thing he saw was Jesus standing at the right hand of the throne. One thing the boy shared about, was about how much God loves the children. And I realize how important it is to be loving our children in the church, and to be sharing Jesus with them. And just think, as believers in Christ we will one day look into Jesus' eyes. AMAZING!
