heaven

And I heard a loud voice from the throne saying, "Now the dwelling of God is with men, and He will live with them. They will be his people, and God himself will be with them and be their God." Revelation 21:3

Forget the mansions, feasts, whatever else you've been told is a good reason to go to heaven. Forget about pain and suffering and fire and sulphur. Communion is the key.

Loneliness sucks. In all the movies and pictures and paintings hell is a lake of fire with some mountains in the background or maybe it looks like a big cave, but in every picture you see thousands of people all crammed together screaming. My job sucks, but Kyle is there so it can suck for us together, which makes it not so bad. I think that in hell the worst thing is that you won't be crammed together with thousands of people, so that you can say "Hey, my skin burning off for eternity sucks" and then they can say "yeah it does", then you can have a conversation about the burnt rocks you had for lunch. I think that the reality of hell is that it will be for ever










and ever










and ever






alone. And that sucks.
