Heaven is for Real

I read a book last night and this morning. It amazed and excited me. I reccomend it to everyone to read. The title of my post is the title of the book.

It's about a little boy of almost 4 years old who has a ruptured appendix and goes to heaven while during surgery. His dad wrote the book and shared what his son told him in the year or so after this event happened. The details the little boy gives are just amazing. He's so young to know some of these things...but there is scripture to back up pretty much what he says about what he saw in Heaven.

I won't share everything of the book, because you just have to read it. And it's a very simple read that is so full of child-like faith.

To read about what was seen in Heaven...the way he describes things. I understand my family doesn't want to lose me, and deep down I don't want to leave them...but I'm so ready to get to heaven. The little boy talked about seeing loved ones, seeing some kinds of animals (including dogs...I was glad about that) and described God and Jesus...even Jesus' cousin (John the Baptist).

What really got me was this boys mom had a miscarriage in between his sister and him (at 2 months along). His parents never shared this with him. He told them one day that he had met his other sister and that she looked like the mom. She was excited to see him and waiting for everyone to get there. But that because she died before her parents knew her gender or anything, she didn't have a name. This is my promise to see my children in heaven! Hallelujah!

This just proves that heaven is real, that God is real. To deny it is just plain ignorance.

Do you know that you will get to this place called Heaven? Do you question at all? I suggest that you find God, accept Christ's gift of eternal life so you can spend eternity with Him and with me (and my family).

I guess all there is left for me to say is...."Amen".
