Heaven - Week 2 and other stuff

So, I haven't been blogging much in 2009, I don't really know why. No time, been busy, too much facebook, cleaning house, who knows...I usually write out of frustration or when I'm in a really deep time, but I need to write when I'm light and at a peace time.

I just am so happy I have a small group now to do bible study and life with. We're a small small group, but for right now, I think we are just where God wants us to be. One Month to Live was a great book and study. I highly recommend it to everyone. I learned so much practical information from this book. It is stuff we think about and we know from what we have learned from the Bible, but are we practicing it everyday. Would I chose to be offended and be angry if I only had 30 days to live? Would I hold that grudge if I only had 30 days to live? We wouldn't. We would want those days to be filled with life, family, and love. Why don't we live every day like that, even though I hope we have many more days to live.

We are in the middle of a 3 week series on Heaven. All I have to say is WOW! This has been an eye-opening series. There are so many cool things about New Earth and New Heaven. I'm so ready! I just have renewed life in the Bible, actually it's probably always been there, but I am Renewed in Christ, and he is showing me new things every day. It is so exciting. Loving Revelation 21. No Light bulbs in Heaven! Yeah!

22 I saw no temple in the city, for the Lord God Almighty and the Lamb are its temple. 23 And the city has no need of sun or moon, for the glory of God illuminates the city, and the Lamb is its light. 24 The nations will walk in its light, and the kings of the world will enter the city in all their glory. 25 Its gates will never be closed at the end of day because there is no night there.


I urge anyone who might read this, if you've never read the Bible or read it 100 times through, open it, read it tonight. God has something new to show you.

With Love,

Summer

More Heaven soon....
