Can the soul in heaven see us? If that is the case, how could they be on eternal joy if they can see our struggle here on earth ?

Yes, they can see us. They enjoy with our struggle, like the mother enjoys with the struggle of the son to stand up, or the Father with the son’s struggle to conquer an Olympic Medal, to finish University and to be a Doctor or to discover the vaccine against HIV.

They know, BETTER THAN US, what our struggles are for. Sometimes our sons dont want to go to school and we convince them to suffer and go for we know that it is for their own good.

I am like the son. I dont understand why I suffer. I must trust the God the Father that it is for my own good, but … it is hard…

cheers,👍

Does a soul have eyes, or does it “see” us in spirit. Just what is meant here by “seeing” us?

Well, if you’re in heaven, you are united with Jesus, right? Scripture says so.

And Jesus (again verified by Scripture) not only is God but as a human has a physical body AND soul which are both present in heaven.

If we are united with that Jesus, then we are gonna see with His physical eyes and His perfection as GOD. No more ‘seeing in a glass darkly’ but face to face.

Mmmmm, but what happen if they see us commit a sin?

Same thing that happens God when He sees us sin: nothing. Our sin has no affect on God, so it has no affect on them. Our sin only has an affect on us. Nothing can harm those who are in the hand of God.

“But the souls of the just are in the hand of God, and the torment of death shall not touch them. In the sight of the unwise they seemed to die: and their departure was taken for misery: And their going away from us, for utter destruction: but they are in peace. And though in the sight of men they suffered torments, their hope is full of immortality. Afflicted in few things, in many they shall be well rewarded: because God has tried them, and found them worthy of himself.” - Wisdom 3

Hi,
No problem. A person going to heaven is in perfect bliss and happiness. The person never experiences any kind of unhappiness. No more suffering, illness, dissapointment,temptataion, etc., etc., etc. Only bliss, glory, joy,fun, happiness beyond description. St. Paul describes the beatific vision this way, beyound description.

We also know that there is communication in the communion of saints, which includes those on earth, in purgatory, and in heaven. The details we don’t know. Sometimes the details aren’t known because it is above our capacity to know, and maybe it is better for now that we don’t know, or what is the point in knowing?​

For the sake of Christ, I willingly accept my weeknesses and my trials,
for when I am powerless then I am strong. Hymn
 
if a mother dies and goes to heaven, how could she be in eternal joy if she can see his son on earth living a licentious life and condemn himself to hell?
That is my Q :confused:

The eternal joy comes from being in the presence of God, and it is not diminshed by the willful actions of others on earth.
