Foggy Day

What an awesome day, most would not agree. When I am in the "fog" I feel closer to heaven. It's like believing without being able to see. What will heaven look like? We have a glimpse of it in Revelations but what will I see when I get there and who will I see. It says we will be surprised at who we will see. This is why I feel it's so important to believe even though we cannot see.
I like to take it a step further, I believe so that I will see those that I love again one day. Reach out to those in your inner circle and keep making that inner circle bigger. Make sure they know the way to heaven. Be brave and ask them if they have a relationship with Jesus after all they are in the "fog" of deception and we can be the"light" of salvation for them.
I was a believing Catholic for many years and even went to a catholic school thinking I would go to heaven if anything happened to me. It wasn't until 7 years ago the fog was lifted. I was at my son's basketball game and I was talking to a complete stranger in the stands; he invited me to his church for a Christmas Eve service. I went thinking that's all it would be and something or someone compelled me to go back. Through that process I realized I didn't have a relationship with Jesus for I had never read the word and didn't know I needed to invite him into my heart. Everything I knew growing up had never taught me this and I found it to be true in the Bible.
Some may want to take their chances and stay in the "fog" of their upbringing, but think about it if I'm right you will spend eternity in hell in a firey pit of misery. If I'm wrong nothing will happen to you. The only way I see it to be safe is to take a chance and give your heart to Jesus and be safe. Believe without seeing! I pray my loved ones make that choice.
