When I Think About Heaven
This evening at church, a majority of the worship songs we sang were about Heaven and eternity.
Since October 18, 2010, I have not been able to think about Heaven without thinking about Gwendolyn Hope. And since April 2, 2011 (when I was connected with Kelly), I have not been able to think about Heaven without thinking about Noah.
Such sweet, precious babies who went to be with Jesus.
It breaks my heart that they are gone. That their mothers carry such heavy burdens. I wonder what they would look like here on Earth, and what they look like now in Heaven. The mention of Heaven and seeing Jesus face-to-face brings tears to my eyes and chokes me up, thinking that Gwen and Noah are there now instead of with their families on Earth. Families that miss them and ache for them.
And yet, what better place could they be? No pain, no sorrow, no sickness. All they've ever known is their sweet Savior's face, and the bliss of eternal paradise.
But still.
