What is Heaven?

Heaven is a lot of things to a lot of people. But to me it will start with one incredible reunion. I showed my children this video of a sailor returning from Iraq and surprising his kindergartener after 7 months away. Then I asked them who he reminded me of--if I were the little boy. They said, "Grampa?" Good answer.

But no. I said, "If the little boy were me--when I get to Heaven--who is the Daddy?"

And my kindergartener knew:

"GeeJuss!!"

Exactly. Watch this little boy. He is overwhelmed to be reunited with Daddy. Watch how he stretches his hands, spreads his fingers. There is nothing in the world that he wants more at that moment than to be held by his Daddy.

That's me.

"Even so, come, Lord Jesus."

Here's the video. Hope it stays up for a long time.
