Heaven is more glorious than we can imagine

-

Q: My nephew was only 3 months old when he died recently. Is he an angel now, like some people say? A: Almost nothing is more devastatin­g than losing a child, no matter their age. And I want to assure you that God also knows what you’re going through, and he wants to surround you with his love.

No, this little one has not become an angel — because he has become something even greater! Although he was only an infant when he died, the Bible assures us that he is now like Jesus Christ — and Christ is greater than the angels. And this is true for everyone who belonged to Christ and was part of his family on Earth and has now entered heaven. Death is our final enemy, and only at the end of the present age will Christ’s victory over death be complete. But heaven is far greater than anything we can fully imagine; if we could glimpse heaven for only one second, we’d never want our loved ones to leave its glory and return to this sin-filled Earth.
