I have not...Thanks for writing, Cecelia and Teresa. I have not read Randy's book, the one Cecilia mentioned. But I LOVED Heaven Is For Real by Todd Burpo. The book is about Todd's son, Colton Burpo -- a three-year-old boy who visited Heaven and lived to tell about it. Colton is eleven now, and though I can be fooled, I tend to believe everything Colton said in that book about Heaven. <br />The video connected to this article also inspired me because it is all based on scripture -- no opinions -- just the Bible. <br />What did you think of the video? <br />By the way, I read MUCH more non-fiction than fiction. I like to write fiction novels, but I like to read non-fiction. Go figure. <br />Love, <br />MollyMolly Noble Bullhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08811325552308982572noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8113039007643369603.post-63018463494668325292011-08-17T18:39:17.677-07:002011-08-17T18:39:17.677-07:00I used to fear it too.

Whenever he sees the clouds look like they're opening up, he'll say; "Is Jesus coming back now? I hope He does."<br /><br />If only we all anticipated it so much.Teresa Slackhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11649279446549391739noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8113039007643369603.post-82448317746505081062011-08-17T17:25:11.000-07:002011-08-17T17:25:11.000-07:00Heaven is a place that lots of people don't re...Heaven is a place that lots of people don't really know enough about. But, if we study the scriptures, and get to know more about Heaven, then I do think the fear of death may lessen/disappear. Just curious, have you ever read Heaven by Randy Alcorn. I have the book, started it, and it was interesting, but I never finished it (I seldom finish non-fiction titles.) He'd mentioned that Heaven, in the long run, would be living on a paradise earth with our resurrected bodies - or something like that.<br /><br />~Cecelia Dowdy~<br />www.ceceliadowdy.blogspot.comCeceliahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06307288519809104420noreply@blogger.com
