WHAT GOD WANTS
God wants to be with everyone whom He has created. Heaven is where God has a place for everyone who wants to be with Him. Hell is for those who don't want to be with God. Any questions?
I can't get you into heaven. Mentioning my name when you get to the pearly gates won't even get you a cup of coffee!
However, I am quite content in the way I am going now, and if you would like to come along with me along that way, I will be glad to have your company. If you are going some other way and we happen to meet, let's rest where we are and take advantage of the opportunity of our being together so that we may communicate with one another about the way one or the other of us have chosen for ourselves.
I will tell you of my hope for Heaven and how I believe God, with whom I want to be, has a place for us there. You may tell me what you please about what pleases you and what you hope to find along your way. Perhaps after our conversation we will continue to go our separate ways; even so, I hope that we would depart as friends. Then again, maybe we will find ourselves willing to go off with one another, walking at least a little while together along the same way.
