varying teas vs. His presence

Last month,
in one day,
I heard two different people describe their versions of Heaven.
They were both hilarious!

One said that Heaven for them would be gospel choir and toaster strudels.
The other, several hours later, said that their Heaven would be a 75 degree snow fall.

Today,
I described my kitchen "tea drawer" as paradise.
(side note: every kind of tea imaginable, decaf and regular, including real British tea ... pretty close to Paradise-- right?)

Listen to this song by Shai Linne,
based on Psalm 73.
The preacher at the beginning and end is John Piper.

Here's the link: My Portion

What if Heaven is perfect:

your favorite food,
your closest friends,
all the luxuries and wealth imaginable,
no sickness, no injuries, no emotional pain,
loads of fun...

but what if God wasn't there?

Would you be satisfied?

"Everyone wants to go to Heaven,
but not everyone wants to spend eternity with God.
Heaven will be filled with people who love God."
(Paul Washer)
