My time in HeavenA Story by Countryman47Seeing Heaven in a dreamMy Time In Heaven,hope you enjoy As I was saying my prayers before I got in bed,I asked God to let me see Heaven in my dreams.I had asked many times before with no results,I sure was not prepared for what was to come.As I laid down and drifted into a dream world,I felt my body feel lighten,all my aches and pains were gone as I drifted toward a beautiful warm light.On my way I saw the infinite universe,it was an awe inspiring sight to say the least.I heard a voice say,this I created for you.It was then I realized,God was going to answer my prayer.The thought crossed my mind that maybe I had died in my sleep as everything was so real,to real to be a dream.I was so at peace,that if I had died I wanted to go on to the light.As I drew nearer to the light I started to see figures in the light and as I got closer,I recognized them to be my family that had went on before me.The first to greet me was my wife that had died of Cancer in 2007.She was young and beautiful as she was when I met her.I realized that I to was young once again. I met,
my Mother and Father,Aunts and Uncles and many I had never known existed
as they were from the family from many generations removed,It didnt
matter we all had a glorious reunion.My wife then told me it was time
for me to move on,I had no idea what she was talking about,but she
promised we would be together again soon.Then,as if by magic,I was in a
room full of Angels.They all I was then shown Heaven and its Glory,I was wondering why I
was being shown,my life was not one that would deserve being in such a
Holy place.Streets of clear gold,massive buildings with precious stones
set in glistening in the light,green fields,pure waters,people every
where singing and rejoicing and giving praise to God.It was a place of
beauty and majesty that a human brain could in no way comprehend.I
looked down the road and saw a building that would dwarf all the
others,I asked the Angel what it was and was told it was the Temple of
God.I could see Priests going in and out singing praises to God,all in
pure white robes and a golden crown on their head.Angels with gossemer
wings flew to and fro delivering Blessings to others from Jesus.I looked
up and saw no sun,no moon,yet the entire land was bathed in beautiful
light,I remembered To think I was
so close to seeing God and Jesus was so exciting to me.But,in the back
of my thoughts realizing all the bad I had done
I was so distraught thinking it was probably to little to late and my
fate had been decided,and I wanted so much to stay.From out of nowhere I
was enveloped in a warm beautiful light.It felt like someones arms were
wrapped around me,the feeling of peace and joy was overwhelming to me.I
looked up and I saw the face of Jesus.He said,My Child all fall short
of the Glory of God,I gave my life for you so you could be saved,the day
I died my Father cast your sins in the lake of forgetfulness,never to
be remembered.I know you have lived a good life in years past
And once again I was with my wife,never to hear an answer to my
question.She told me it was not yet my time,but she would be here the
day we could spend eternity together.She told me I had only seen a tiny
portion of the true majesty and splendor that Heaven was.I asked her
As the days past I thought of the dream often trying to find a meaning
for what I had seen.In my heart though I knew I has seen the next part
of my journey.I had a feeling of peace and calm I did not feel before.My
only thoughts on my journey are as the Bible said I sat
the other day and opened my Bible and it opened to John3:16.I could
hear a faint sound of wings rustling and it occurred to me © 2016 Countryman47 |
