We are made for Heaven
(Note from the author: I attended a bible study with Pastor Hem last year. The idea of this article was taken from one of his lessons.)
The idea of death often scares people. Maybe because no one is really sure what will happen when we die. This is why we seem to be always develpoing technologies that would make us live longer. We crave to live forever because we are meant to live forever! But not here on Earth. We are made for eternity in Heaven. Sin is what keeps us stuck here on Earth. Maybe this is the reason why we are never satisfied here on Earth. Earthly happiness are only temporary. The happiness we find are just glimpses of Heaven here on Earth.
Ever wonder why we sometimes feel so empty? And no matter how hard we look for happiness, it can never be satisfied? It's because we have this hole of emptiness that only God can fill. The more we sin and turn away from God, the more the hole grows. The more we feel discontentment. Let God fill that hole by admiting our sins and allowing Him to enter our hearts and lives. Christ is the only way to Heaven.
Just imagine the feeling you had when you finally got the raise and promotion you've been working so hard for. Now imagine the happiness you'll feel when you finally meet God in Heaven and receive the rewards you've been working so hard for... Won't the happiness be a hundred times greater? We can't imagine how satisfying that would feel. This is what we've been waiting for. This is our goal because
We are made for Heaven.
