The eternal glories [ Hebrews 11v 8-16 ]

I can imagine standing in heaven,and thinking how absolutley wonderful that I did not miss this,and yet I could have.I can only imagine what heaven be like,we know there will be no suffering,of any kind,that every aspect of our exsistance will be perfect,yes we will be perfect.We will never be bored
we will all truly love each other,no more bickering,or fighting,no more
disappointments.There we will perfect communion with God,nothing between us to hinder our relationship,no guilt or failures,no accidents. In
1 Corinthians 2 v9,we read,''No eye has seen,no ear has heard,no mind has conceived what God prepared for those who love Him''now of course as he writes in verse 10,there are things God has revealed to us by His Spirit.But the glories and wonders that we will experience in heaven,is hidden from us,the apostle Paul having experienced a glimpse of Heaven,writes that,''
he heard unexpressible things,things that man is not permitted to tell[2
Cor  12 v4].Charles Hodge writes,''The vail which conceals the mysteries
 and glories of heaven God has not permitted to be raised.It is enough that we know that in that world the saints shall be made perfectly holy and perfectly blessed in the full enjoyment of God forever''
                                         A  prayer.
Dear God help us to keep the eye of faith on the eternal glories that shine afar,to remember we are aliens and strangers on earth, in Jesus name we ask this Amen
