Glimpse of Heaven

We had a great weekend visiting my father's river house.  We got to go boating, kayaking, canoeing, fishing, crabbing, jet skiing, and swimming.  Being surrounded by the water and nature reminded me of God's majesty and serenity.  At one point while watching the sunset, my stepmother commented that it was like seeing heaven.  None of us can know what heaven truly will look like. But I believe that God gives us sunsets and surrounds us with natural beauty to give us a glimpse of what it will be like -- only heaven will be infinitely more beautiful.

"It shone with the glory of God, and it's brilliance was like that of a very precious jewel, like a jasper, clear as crystal." (Revelation 21:11)

Below is a picture that I took of the sunset, but I'm not a photographer, so this picture really doesn't do it justice.
