I’ve been told, and I’ve read (in Chapter 21 of Revelation), that there is no pain or sorrow in Heaven. I trust that is true. It’s been suggested that there will be no questioning or reason for questions there, that we will know everything God knows once we get there, but I haven’t been to actual Heaven yet. I’ve only been to that place called Heaven on Earth a few times, and I can’t seem to stay there for very long.

So, I woke up pondering this morning. How will that affect “story time?”

Oh yeah. I doubt that we’ll golf, watch basketball or eat chicken wings in Heaven. But there has to be a story time! Have you seen the picture of Jesus sitting on a rock with children hovering at his side and feet? Doesn’t that indicate story time?

Now, I’m not saying that I’d want to turn around and come back if, when I get there, I don’t see a schedule listing “Story Time,” but answer this: Who wrote the greatest story ever told? (Not the Hollywood version, but the actual story.)

I’ve also heard folks say to others, who might be worrying, not to worry. “We know how this story ends,” they say. But Revelation is not even to the middle of eternity. There’s a lot more story to be told.

Won’t it be great to sit at Jesus’ feet and listen? Won’t it be great to be able to stand back up without pain or moaning and groaning?
