“And he brought him forth abroad, and said, Look now toward heaven, and tell the stars, if thou be able to number them: and he said unto him, So shall thy seed be.” Ge. 15:5 KJV
Heaven is a place of limitless possibilities. For the believer the promise of Heaven is not something we will someday get. The Kingdom of Heaven has come upon us; It is near to our hearts right now!
God told Abram to look into Heaven and to count the stars. He commanded the man to let the view of the cosmos inspire him to believe for big things on Earth.
Our thoughts of Heaven today should do the same thing. We are not supposed to sit around waiting to die so we can get eternal life! We are supposed to bring eternity down and start living it out in miraculous ways right now.
Let me ask you a serious question: What has your view of Heaven inspired you to do here on Earth? Go look at the stars and dream big!
What has it inspired me to do here on earth? I think probably the biggest thing is to love and to give . . .without expectations of receiving anything. Because He has given me His love and all of eternity with Him. God bless you and what He has inspired in you!
And that thing you love to do you are called to do. Thank you for the inspiration you give Deb! 🙂
Heaven has inspired me to witness more and more no matter whose company I’m in. Thank you Lord, for being patient with me, for I am trying to be more obedient when you lead. I pray that you never stop leading me.
And He never shall stop Deb! You are an evangelist at heart I know and that gift has come with all the blessings and the persecutions I know. I pray for your strength every day!
