Are we looking?
The Pastor was speaking about heaven, about eternal bliss and the joys that are awaiting each person on "the other side". He paused for effect and asked, "How many of you here want to go to heaven?" All hands were raised except for an eight-year-old boy sitting in the front pew. The minister asked, "Don't you want to go to heaven, too, Son?" The boy replied, "Yes, but I thought you were making up a load to go right now." This boy's reply could express the way many Christians think. They want to go to heaven but not just now. Scripture tells us Jesus is coming back for his own. II Peter 3:12,13 tells us to be looking for and earnestly desiring the coming of the day of God. Are we looking?
