I think it is my human inability to truly grasp what life in heaven will be like. I've certainly read John the Baptist's attempt at describing heaven and for me, it is still insufficient. We, as humans, can only describe things in our terms and we are definitely incapable of thinking like God.
I feel that is one of Satan's tools to try and use against us. Feeding thoughts in our heads of inadequacies, our past, and the inability to truly fathom what heaven will be. It is times like this in that I am reminded of 2 Corinthians 4:18 So we fix our eyes not on what is seen, but on what is unseen, since what is seen is temporary, but what is unseen is eternal.
It is the basis of my faith. Hebrews 11:1 (says it succinctly), Now faith is confidence in what we hope for and assurance about what we do not see.
It is in the constant seeking of commune with my God where my faith is strengthened and cannot be marred, damaged, undone, or harmed.
Today my prayer is that the God of eternal love finds you and instills a grain of faith and that the seed would be nurtured until it bears fruits for others to see and believe.
