“Let not your hearts be troubled. Believe in God; believe also in me. In my Father's house are many rooms. If it were not so, would I have told you that I go to prepare a place for you? And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again and will take you to myself,
that where I am you may be also."
-John 14:1-3

Recently, I've been listening to the music of the group Mary, Mary. Their music is great for a workout! It's upbeat and makes me rejoice. One song in particular has really encouraged me so I thought I'd pass on the words to you:
[Chorus]
I gotta get my self together
cause i got some place to go
and I'm praying when i get there
I'll see everyone I know
I wanna go, to heaven [4x]
Do u wanna go??
[verse 1]
Can you picture a place
Where there's a smile on every face?
And all the worries, all the stressing
And all the pressure been erased
Walking down the streets that's golden
Angels sing in perfect weather
Everybody gotta mention
Lord it just don't get no better
I wanna know
[verse 2]
Any way I can explain it
That in life we go through changes
But we know it deserves a purpose
Yes sometimes it just seems worthless
But this race that I'm running
Whether I run it fast or slow
Long as I just keep on running
I'm gonna make it there some day I know
[bridge]
(There's a place for us)
One day I'm gonna see it
(There's a place for us)
And you may not believe it
But I'm just living my life
(So I can live again)
Everyday I'm getting ready
(Cause I wanna make it in)
Ooh Heaven
[chorus]
Oh, it gets hard sometimes
And sometimes I lose my way
But God knows I'm trying
To get to heaven someday
To that beautiful city
I wanna go to heaven [6x]
I gotta get my self together
cause i got some place to go
and I'm praying when i get there
I'll see everyone I know
I wanna go, to heaven [4x]
Do u wanna go??
[verse 1]
Can you picture a place
Where there's a smile on every face?
And all the worries, all the stressing
And all the pressure been erased

Any way I can explain it

But this race that I'm running

[bridge]

One day I'm gonna see it
(There's a place for us)
And you may not believe it
But I'm just living my life

Listening to this song makes me yearn for the perfection of heaven. I now my life has not been "hard" but when I look around at the people around me and see injustices in the world, well, it makes me think of the glory of heaven.
Who am I going to take to heaven with me?
"But our citizenship is in heaven, and from it we await a Savior, the Lord Jesus Christ, who will transform our lowly body to be like his glorious body,
by the power that enables him even to subject all things to himself."
-Philippians 3:20-21
