I am happlily married with 5 kids. I am an accoutant and worked in an accounting field for over 25 years. I like to make a habit of writing down whenever I have deep thoughts about God (so I won't forget). I really into Reformed Theology that is connected to Presbyterian Church in America.

In Heaven.......

I truly believe when we get into heaven, I will remember those who were in my life on earth but I won't remember what I did with them on earth. I am thinking eternal sense rather than temporal. There is only a change of residence at the time of physical death. My tent (body) will turn to dust while my soul will change its location (heaven). Physical death brings a change of residence not an end of my existence but rather the end of my temporay body. Residence is dramatically changed. We have little or nothing in human experience on earth that qualifies greater spiritual experience in heaven. 2 Corinthians 5:1 Now we know that if the earthly tent we live in is destroyed, we have a building from God, an eternal house in heaven, not built by human hands. I was thinking and the Holy Spirit reminded me of David's son. In 2 Samuel 12:13-15 Then David said to Nathan, "I have sinned against the LORD." Nathan replied, "The LORD has taken away your sin. You are not going to die. 14 But because by doing this you have made the enemies of the LORD show utter contempt, the son born to you will die. After Nathan had gone home, the LORD struck the child that Uriah's wife had borne to David, and he became ill." King David prayed for his infant son who was dying. God took the life of the little boy, and David said, "But now that he is dead...Can I bring him back again? I will go to him, but he will not return to me" (2 Samuel 12:23). David spoke under the inspiration of the Holy Spirit and indicated that he, David, would someday go to be with his little son. David was a believer who was redeemed and upon death went "non-stop" to Heaven.
