Been to a concert lately? Not what you expected? Music too loud? Vocals off? Too rock-ish? Not enough? Boring? Yawning? Too far back and you couldn’t see? Sat right in front of the mammoth speakers?
Visited a museum and it was a big disappointment? No huge dinos…?
Checked out an art gallery and walked away feeling, ehhh…? My 3-yr. old can do better.
Dated that “hot” person and thought you’d melt, but instead, they were cold? They were snobbish?
Your “Dream job” not as thrilling as it sounded? More of a nightmare?
Lots of us have been there.
Some people think of heaven with the same thoughts of disappointment they’ve grown to expect. Maybe you picture yourself filing your nails after biting them off and spitting out pieces, thinking, “Oh God! will this ever change?” Maybe Went to a concert, but it wasn’t what you expected? Music too you’re all right. Heaven will not be what you expected. It’ll be thousands of times better!
We can’t even imagine it. From dazzling light shows to breath-taking views, every area visited will be spectacular.
With no death, no sorrow, no sickness, no lies, no deceit, no crime, no evildoers, but a lifetime of God’s presence wherever we go, heaven will be the place to be at!
Definitely, heaven will not be what you expected.
“And the gates of it shall not be shut at all by day: for there shall be no night there. And they shall bring the glory and honor of the nations into it. And there shall in no wise enter into it anything that defiles, neither whatsoever worketh abomination, or maketh a lie: but they which are written in the Lamb’s book of life” (Rev.21:25-27).
“Outside the city are the dogs, those who practice magic arts, the sexually immoral, the murderers, the idolaters, and everyone who loves falsehood” (Rev 22:15).
But unlike museums, concerts, or shows, tickets will not be available for purchase at the door. They must be acquired in advance-NOW! Jesus purchased billions in advance at a hefty cost: leaving His glory, taking upon Himself your sins, suffering for them even though he was innocent, and dying in your place on a cross to guard you from having to lay your life at the altar of sacrifice to appease God’s demand for sin.
Claim your ticket NOW. “Today is the day of salvation” (2Corinthians 6:2b). Limited Time Offer! You can die at any moment and be lost forever.
NOTE* Only One ticket Per Person
God Bless,

Finding Laughter In Difficult Times
My life experiences in the good times and in very difficult times will hopefully inspire, encourage, and motivate others to take time to laugh, reflect, and seek God when difficulties in life arise.
