If You Could See Where I Am, You Wouldn't Cry

Aren't those lyrics beautiful?
So simple but they make you think ... daydream even.
Losing a loved one has got to be the most difficult thing anyone experiences here on earth,
but what a comfort to know that if they die in Christ, they will live again!
They have gained their eternal reward!

Heaven is real ... & I love to think about what it's like there.
I know that my simple finite mind can't even begin to grasp, can't even scratch the surface
of the beauty & splendor that Heaven holds.

When we think of our loved ones there, beholding the beauty,
seeing the saints, meeting Jesus ... it's exciting, really!
Although our hearts are sad down here because we miss them & want to keep them forever,
we would never for one minute call them back!
And one of these days when God calls us home, we will see them again.
What a promise.

But, as it is written, “What no eye has seen, nor ear heard, nor the heart of man imagined, 

what God has prepared for those who love him”—1 Corinthians 2:9
