Heaven


Didacus

Recommended Posts

There is a book by Peter Kreeft called "Everything You Ever Wanted to Know About Heaven, but Never Dreamed of Asking." One of the priests at the Newman center said it was really good.

According to this somewhat whimsical, metaphorical post, you're sort of right. Sort of.

I think Heaven is going to be like a real city, a real New Jerusalem. ( I love New Jerusalem ! See my signature.) Like Rome at its height. Only you'll bump into Thomas Aquinas on the way to the library, and you'll pass Blesseds Jacinta and Francisco flying kites in the field, and the angels will be gliding back and forth from the palace where Queen Mary and the royal court are seated. And it will be big and little at the same time, because there's no end to the new places you can go, but you can be wherever you want, with whomever you want, anytime you want.

And the Holy Trinity will be constantly present to everyone, like a sun that never sets. And every word that is spoken and every action, every thought, will be out of pure love and an act of worship for the Lord.

Sigh. Can you tell I like day dreaming about Heaven?

[quote]Heaven, What do you think it's like?[/quote]

Eternally worshipping God in His presence and never getting bored with it. An incomprehensible mystery to my frail human mind.

all I know is that I've always heard about Heaven being a million times happier then your happiest moment of your entire life.

That being said; I can't wait to get there. (If I'm worthy enough).. I think I am......... :)
