However, as it is written: “What no eye has seen, what no ear has heard, and what no human mind has conceived”- the things God has prepared for those who love him- ” (1 Corinthians 2:9, NIV)

Our puny brains cannot understand the wonder and glory of what God has prepared for us in heaven.

It's like trying to explain the internet to an ant!

Part of our challenge in understanding heaven is God's Word tells us more about what it is not than what it is. That tells us that language cannot capture the full grandeur of God's glory He has prepared for His children (John 14:1-3)!

  • What WON'T Be in Heaven?
    I'd love to see your list!

"Do not let your hearts be troubled. You believe in God; believe also in me. My Father’s house has many rooms; if that were not so, would I have told you that I am going there to prepare a place for you? And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come back and take you to be with me that you also may be where I am.
(John 14:1–3, NIV)

Rejoicing, On the Victory Side!
