Auntie Mae

1903-2006

Will anyone Meet Me When I go to Heaven?
When you go visit your best friends, isn't it great to see them waiting for you? When you get home from School, doesn't it make you feel good to be met at the door by your mom- especially if she's baked some cookies? When you go to your grandparents' house, isn't it fun to see them watching for you through the front window?
When people love you , they watch and wait for you. Arriving in Heaven will be like coming home to the warm welcome of loved ones.
Maybe the people who will smile the biggest welcome will be the ones who prayed for you and taught you about Jesus. How happy they will be to see that you gave your life to the Lord!
If someone you love is already in Heaven , he or she may be watching for you. And when you walk smiling through the doorway , how happy your loved one will be.
Who will be the happiest? You can guess that one. That's right. Jesus will be happiest of all. Don't you think he will be the first one to hug you when you step into heaven? And I know what he will say: "Come in! Come in! I've been waiting for you!"
