Day 82

I have just finished my ten things for the day. I only have eighteen days left until I have reached my goal. It was a little more challenging today. I have felt tired and restless both since I got up this morning. I don't like that feeling at all. It was sunny today and that was very pleasant.When I was looking out of  my office window this afternoon the clouds looked like steps were in them going up .They were evenly spaced apart. It looked really neat. That just reminded of that stairway to heaven song.

I am glad we don't have to take stairs to get to heaven. That would be a long journey. A glass elevator would not be so bad.Could you imagine if you were really good you got the elevator, if you struggled  but still tried hard you got the escalator, but if you really stressed God out you get the long stairs or maybe a ladder. I am sure glad it does not really work that way. I still think the way Elijah went had to be really amazing.I think about heaven often and wonder what it will look like. You know it has to be magnificent. If God made earth with all the beautiful plants and waterfalls and exotic animals for our enjoyment you know Heaven has to be a million times better.

By faith Abraham when called to go to a place he would later receive as his inheritance, obeyed and went, even though he did not know where he was going. By faith he made his home in the promised land like a stranger in a foreign country; he lived in tents, as did Isaac and Jacob, who where heirs with him of the same promise. For he was looking forward  to the city with fountains, whose architect and builder is God.  HEBREWS 11: 8-10
