Hope | The Desire for Heaven

ONE

Do we really want to go to Heaven?

Many of us, if we’re really honest with ourselves, would admit that we don’t really want to go to Heaven – at least not yet…

Sure, we’d probably prefer heaven to the idea of hell, or even annihilation, but we’re certainly not eager to get there right now. That’s why we’re all so afraid to die, and why we always try so desperately to delay death as long as possible, which is strange for people of hope who believe in heaven.

Why would we want to delay heaven as long as possible?

Why have we lost our desire for heaven, and what can we do to regain it?
