Heaven

I've been challenged this week by a song called Heaven by a group called Mary Mary.

The line that's caught me off guard says
"And I pray that when I get there I'll meet everyone I know."

Now at first hearing that sounds great! But then I thought-

Do I really want to meet EVERYONE I know???

I can think of a lot of people I have known and some I still know that I will be glad I won't see again!

God loves everyone and his desire is for all mankind to worship him and be in his presence! Surely, if Christ lives in me, I should want the same!

Challenging thought! I know I should love everyone.... but love them so much I want to spend eternity with them???
