One day not long after my mother went home to heaven to be with the Lord Jesus, my granddaughter, Chantel, was found busy packing her suitcase as if she were going on a journey. Chantel is only six years old.
After packing her suitcase, she picked up the leash for her dog Lassie, went outside and brought Lassie in on the leash, then picked up her suitcase and started out of the house.
Her mother said to her, “Chantel, just what do you think you are doing with that suitcase and Lassie?”
Chantel answered, “Me and Lassie are going to heaven to see Great Gramma. We miss her, you know.”
So Chantel’s mother sat down with her and explained to her that you just can’t walk to heaven. Chantel knows where her great gramma is. You see, Great Gramma was saved, and when she died she went to be with the Lord Jesus.
Do you know anyone in heaven? Heaven is a very beautiful place. The Lord Jesus said in John 14:2, “In My Father’s house are many mansions.” If you die, will you go to heaven? You will if you are saved from your sins. If you are not saved, you will go to the terrible place called hell, “where their worm dieth not, and the fire is not quenched [put out].” Mark 9:44.
Great Gramma accepted the Lord Jesus Christ as her Saviour many years ago, and He washed all her sins away in His precious blood. “The blood of Jesus Christ His Son cleanseth us from all sin.” 1 John 1:7.
Are your daddy and mommy going to heaven? Will you be with them in heaven? Why not accept Jesus Christ as your Saviour right now and know for sure that someday you also will be in heaven.
“Behold, now is the accepted time; behold, now is the day of salvation.” 2 Corinthians 6:2.
