I recently found out that there isn’t marriage in heaven. Now we all know why it’s called Heaven! Just kidding…
Apparently this is noted in the Bible but as I mentioned before, my bible knowledge isn’t that great so when I heard this, it was a surprise. Some people take this in stride and others are unsettled by this. I guess I never really thought about it before.
If I had to describe heaven, it would be look just like Medicine Lake in Jasper, Alberta. That’s my vision. When I taught Religious Education, one Sunday I asked my 3rd graders to draw pictures of what they thought heaven would be like. As you would expect, it was filled with lots of huge TVs, video games and in one case, SpongeBob. Let’s hope there’s an adult section.
Since Easter weekend, two friends from high school have passed away. I’m hoping they are resting in whatever they thought heaven would be like and if they didn’t think much about it, I hope it has turned out to be a pleasant surprise.
Today’s song from my IPod is from Mary Chapin Carpenter “In My Heaven.”
