Think of every pain you’ve ever had in your life. Think of all the missed joy, the missed love that you never got. Think of every confusion and uncertainty that plagued you with fear.
Do you realize that everything we missed here will be given to us in heaven? Do you realize that all the love and happiness that slipped away will be yours, forever? Do you realize it will be given in such abundance that we do not have the ability to comprehend it?
THIS is how much God loves us. THIS is what He wants to give us.
On a personal side, I came to realize this after a huge heartbreak of my own. I’ve grown up with rejection my whole life from my grandparents, aunts and uncles because of religious differences. They are Jehovah’s Witness; I am Catholic. They believe Catholics are of the devil, and therefore shun me and my family. I’ve tried many times to bridge the gap, but to no avail.
