Heaven is for Real

Wow! What a book! Angela gave it to me on Sunday to read... One nite Curt wasn't feeling good, so he went to bed and I stayed up on the couch and read. I read for 2 hours and got to a chapter and HAD to stop. It's about 2 sisters. It talks about the mom who had a miscarriage, and the little boy, okay, I am jumping the gun here.
This little boy is basically dying from a ruptured appendix. Once he goes into surgery, he leaves his body and goes to Heaven. Sometime after the surgery the little boy says something to catch the parents attention. They finally figure it all out and realize that the little boy went to Heaven. The little boy talks so much about Heaven and how grand and awesome it is! That Jesus is just HUGE, but he is FILLED with soooo much LOVE! There is WAY more, but I don't even want to talk about it, you NEED to read this book!!!!! Anyways, so back to where I HAD to stop... The mom had a miscarriage and the 2 kids didn't know about it. One day he was talking about his sister, and the mom mentioned something and the little boy said, no, the one in heaven. It just touched me so much, (I know I am not even doing this book justice!), but my point is, I've always wondered about my baby. I didn't know the sex of my baby, I don't know if my baby is grown, will I REALLY recognize my baby? But the boy saw his sister and KNEW it was his sister. His sister didn't have a name because they didn't know the sex of their baby either. But since they didn't name the baby, the baby didn't have a name. I know, I am rambling...

The boy also got to SEE Jesus and knows what he looks like! But since he was so little, he really couldn't say what was wrong with all the Jesus pictures out there! His parents would ask, does this look like Jesus? The boy would say no.. Then finally one day the dad heard about the little girl who had visions from God and would paint those visions. One of her paintings is of Jesus. They asked their little boy if this looked like Jesus and his eyes just lit up and said yes, it really looked like Him! I remember hearing about this girl a while ago... Akiane Kramarik is her name...

(won't let me post a video, so will do it in another blog.. ;))
Here she talks about it a bit more. She does it in better words than I can...

But I keep thinking about the Angel I saw over my dad when he was in the hospital, the day before he died. The Angels eye were the SAME exact green as what this girl paints Jesus' eyes. He was filled with light and love. He was HUGE, but not scary, even though he was the angel of death. He was the one who took my dad to be in that beautiful place called Heaven.

I can NOT wait til it's my turn! I want to see God, I want to see those beautiful colors that we don't even know about! I want to see my baby and my dad and those other loved ones! I don't want to get comfortable here, but I want to tell others so that they will have the chance to get to Heaven as well, because Heaven is for REAL, there is NO doubt about that!

Wow! I definitely want to read this. I'm guessing it's based on a true story? I also lost a baby. Halfway through my pregnancy I was in a bad car accident and the baby didn't make it. I found out the next day that it was a boy. But I know he's in heaven. I just wonder the same things as you though...will he still be a baby, or grown? I guess we won't know until it's our time. If you enjoyed that book, then you may also enjoy Embraced by the Light by Betty J. Eadie. She also has a second book: The Awakening Heart, also great. It's all about how she died and also experienced heaven and meeting loved ones beyond this life. Thanks so much for this post and I will let you know when I get around to getting that book! I can't wait to read it after hearing your review of it.

Grandma

Grandma passed away this morning at 1:35 am. She had been totally un-responsive for the past couple of days. Yesterday we got a call and said she only had an hour, they said they made the mistake and grandma heard them, so she kept hanging on! Her feet had been cold and almost black, but they were starting to get warm and she was taking more breaths, but still very shallow. Finally she gave in and went home! The family seems to be doing ok, just please keep them in your prayers! The viewing will be Sunday and the funeral on Monday. I am not sure of the times yet, they are meeting with the funeral director in an hour. I am not going to be at the musical practice Monday nite, so Sandy May and Jena R are in charge that nite! I will have the lines assigned so the kids will know what their parts will be! Please help them out this week!!!! Thank you!!!! Thanks again for all of your prayers!!!!

Run-Aways

Wow, this has seriously been an eventful week! Starting off with the whole fabric softener mis-hap, which you can read on here if you didn't see or hear about it! Then Curt left Monday nite, Tuesday, well, it was ok, we had mom's group and the kids were acting up a bit, but nothing too bad... Then Wednesday I had a meeting at the church... It started out ok, the meeting wasn't long at all! Gavin came into the room and said he wanted to go play outside on the playground. I told him no, because I couldn't see him. I said, what if someone came by and picked you up and grabbed you and took you somewhere? Mommy would never see you again and I would be soooo sad! I said, I can't see you, so you need to stay inside. Well, not more than 3 minutes passed and Kotah comes up to me and says, uh, mom, Gavin is trying to go outside. So, I get up, go over to him and talk. I asked him what is he doing? he says, I WANT to play OUTSIDE! I said, bubby, I can't see you, so you can&

Blue Like Play Dough

I got signed up to read some books and then blog about it. If you post a comment at the end (or if it won't let you, send me an e-mail or write me on FB) I will put all the names in a hat and pull and name out. Then I will send you a free copy! The book I read is called Blue Like Play Dough and it's by Tricia Goyer. Her website is http://www.triciagoyer.com/ You can get more info on it at RandomHouse.com This book is awesome! A fast read if you don't have a lot of time to read it, kinda like me! :) The first couple of chapters just totally grabbed me! We are always trying to find time to set aside for God and wait for Him to speak to us. We are always so busy going here and going there and doing this with our kids, then cooking, cleaning, etc.. we don't think He can meet us in our home, but that is where Tricia hears God. She has heard Him speak to her when she is cuddling with her little girl or playing with play dough with her kids. Tricia has been through so much
