I prefer not to speculate about what Heaven will be like since it will undoubtedly be WAY better than anything I could possibly imagine. I do hope there are sports though…
I agree, though not necessarily about the sports. I can be perfectly happy without them.
I remember my mom telling me about someone she knew (or someone she knew who knew someone) who had a near-death experience and, supposedly, saw Heaven. She described it as a beautiful forest of pine trees, with a massive log cabin and music playing. I think, when she went into the cabin, she found angels and the souls of deceased friends/relatives having a great celebration at her arrival. Maybe I got details wrong, but that, I think, was the gist.
Of course, that may not have been the actual Heaven, for whatever reason. Maybe each person’s perception of Heaven is different. After all, our perceptions of perfect happiness vary.
Or maybe that isn’t necessarily the case. Maybe when we get to Heaven, we “spiritually mature” so that we no longer desire the things that pleased us on Earth, but are perfectly satisfied by the one, most important thing: being in the constant prescence of God.
Or, maybe both of those ideas are totally wrong, and Heaven is something none of us could possibly hope to imagine. That’s probably true. But it’s fun to speculate anyway.
