24 Hours That Changed the World: "Today You Will Be With Me in Paradise"
The idea of spring break is fantastic. The idea of having time off and going off to find paradise somewhere sure sounds wonderful. Paradise might be on a mountain top in Colorado, a beach on some tropical island, or a shopping spree in New York City. There are so many places in the world that we seek to find paradise. God’s creation is truly marvelous and there are no ends to its beauty, but why is it that for us paradise is somewhere else? Paradise is here…it’s now…it’s with you.
I believe God intended more than just wanting us to take us from this world into the next that we call Heaven. Jesus came to make all things new, usher in this new kingdom of heaven on Earth. In other words restore the paradise that God intended for all of us in live in. What I found that physical death was not door to paradise but true paradise began once I accepted Jesus as my Lord and Savior. In Jesus we can experience something far greater than any mountain top or white sandy beach we can experience a life with God that is the best paradise of all.
