You continue to be an inspiration to others in the same way you were at Continental Bible Collge (now CTS). You are a true "a piece of heaven" and a mirror of what God wants us to be like now and in eternity. I love and miss you and Jim.

If not, it might stay that way with no one accepting any forbidden fruits! :) Okay, just kidding!<BR/><BR/>On a serious note, I admire your post. I just cannot even fathom what God and him in heaven would be like in all its glory. We tiny little Homo sapiens are so full of our little "wonders", we so easily marvel at what we think is heaven, our imaginations are so limited.<BR/><BR/>But I can just throw caution to the wind and just try to imagine what it would be like, especially when we think about the lamb of God in all his glory!<BR/><BR/>Stay blessed.Benni Alexanderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16650556457065785515noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31906047.post-17392818535955830012008-12-11T04:20:00.000-06:002008-12-11T04:20:00.000-06:00Hello Maralyn,I happened to your blog, following l...Hello Maralyn,<BR/>I happened to your blog, following links from Jeanne Winters' blog. I would like to tell you that your post blessed me today in many ways. I so much agree with what you said so beautifully. Since I have accepted Christ as my Lord and savior, I have been having similar thoughts of Heaven as the only place where I want to be when this life ends, and I pray that we will be there as a family. What a joy to be together with our loved ones in the eternal presence of Jesus!<BR/>Wishing you the very best.

As a mom with young children, I seem to get caught up in the moment and feel frustrated and overwhelmed. Your entry, today, brought me back to our eternal reality. I get excited thinking about the new earth because there are so many things I love about this life, but the brokenness of this world can bring such heartache. It will be so nice to one day experience the many wonderful things we cannot even imagine! May you be blessed today sweet friend.

Earlier this fall, I read Randy Alcorn's book at your suggestion, and Charlie started reading it as well. However, we had to return it to the library before he could finish. :( Then www.christianaudio.com put the audio book on .mp3 on sale last week for only $9.95, so Charlie bought it to listen as he goes to and from work. He's excited to be able to finish it as he drives. Multi-tasking at its best.

May you have a blessed Christmas season. Nancy<BR/>P.S.
