What is heaven like? One perspective:

"We will never have God’s exhaustive knowledge of reality (in my judgment, not even in heaven)." John Frame

If this is true, and I think that it is true, then we will always be ever increasing and never diminishing. How does that feel? In a finite capacity we have felt this.

Have you ever read a good book? It was so great that you could barely put it down; you couldn't wait to pick it up again. And how did you feel when you finished it? "The End." No. "Where's the sequel?"

Then the feeling diminishes. It goes away. We remember the book though.

Have you ever seen a good movie? It is similar to a book, but it only has minutes to build up before it is all over; and usually doesn't quite evoke what a book can.

Have you ever been "in love?" You could not bear to be away from that person. No matter how long you were together it was never enough. You wanted to spend the rest of your life with that person; then you got married. Seriously, not being a cynic, marriage is great but it is hard work (a good marriage is).

What I'm saying is that we are bound by the "constrictions of time." "All good things must come to an end." They do and oftentimes change form. A good book ends with the beginning of the next one. Your romantic interest becomes your lover. But what of heaven? What of God?

It is beholding perfect love; not fully understanding it, but growing in it always. "Let the good 'times' roll." It will be good; it will not end. The good feeling won't go away; ever. That is eternity. Whatever God actually has for us (playing harps, making cloud castles, opening and closing gates for others, living on the 'new earth'); whatever it is, it won't be dull, boring.

God made us and He knows us. Jesus Christ is a man (though He is God). It's gonna' be good.
