Most of all, being with our Lord and equally, finally seeing Him receive all the glory, honor and praise He's always been due!
Experiencing having my new body and increased mental capacities. Being able to be active again (physically I mean) without pain, without having to take breaks constantly etc. And at the same time, experiencing what it will be like to finally never sin again.
Getting to meet all the wonderful people I've studied about in God's Word for so long and get to talk to them and find out if they're really the way I've imagined that they are and just get to know them as another member of our family.
Finally, really getting to see New Jerusalem and finding out just what surprises the Lord has in store for us that He's told us are so wonderful that they're far beyond our ability to even imagine!
Getting to meet all of you guys and introduce you to my other earthly family members and getting to meet yours and getting to really know each other even better and enjoying each others company.
The Bema judgment and finding out how much glory I've been able to bring to our Lord since I've been saved. (I sure hope it's lots and lots because He sure deserves it!) And getting to see each of you get your rewards and being able to cheer you on as we discover how much glory we've brought to the Lord while we were here.
The wedding banquet!!!!! I can't wait to see what foods will be served! I bet the food is going to taste better then anything we've ever tasted before too! And imagine the dinner conversation between everyone, including our Lord! Imagine the size of the tables and the number of them Wow! Talk about a party!!! There's never been anything anywhere near it here on earth and never will be again. What an amazing time that will be!
Speaking of time, I can't wait to see what it'll be like to not be tied down by time and space anymore.
OK, I know this one is going to sound really weird, but I can't wait to study God's Word when we're there, maybe even with the Lord Himself and/or the disciples or others who've been featured in it. But even by myself sometimes, as there's just nothing I enjoy more.
Finding out what job the Lord will have for me during the Millennium. I'm really hoping He'll allow me to help teach the children born during the Millennium and the women. But I know whatever job He gives me, it will be just perfect for me and I'll love it.
Getting to worship God together with everyone else there--what an amazing experience that's going to be!
And thinking of singing, I can't wait to be able to actually sing and sound good!
To experience life in a world filled with other true believers and with our Lord, where there's no more sin or temptation, just love and trust....no more going around a corner only to see someone wearing a t-shirt with something disgusting on it; or searching for a Christian graphic and seeing something blasphemous; or hearing heretical teaching; or hearing about or seeing disasters or tragedies; no more heart aches, pain or sorrow; no more filthy TV shows or movies; never having to hear another lie again; never having to deal with people thinking that we're stupid for believing what we do, or having to deal with them putting us down or persecuting us for what we believe. To finally have people be able to truly know me, to know my heart and my love for them. For both friends and family to finally know all that was ever in my heart for them during this life. To never, ever, hear a lie again or gossip, slander, swearing, or foul language. To see a newspaper full of only good news because that's all there is. It's hard to even imagine life like that, but I like to try and can't wait till the day it's finally true!
To live in a world where we know everyone intimately, and everyone loves me the way Jesus does, and where I will love everyone the way Jesus does. It's hard to imagine having such a strong love for everyone and them having that same love for you, a love that would cause you to give your life for someone! I think that will be the most amazing thing of all.
To get to see and even eat from the Tree of Life
To get to see and talk to angels, the living creatures, etc.
to have a garden with NO weeds!!!
To see the Crystal Sea
To be able to be around, see, touch, play with and love all God's animals, birds and fish, including all the pets I've had during my time here, and all those we consider "wild" animals now.
Just being Home, and O so much more!!!
