My sister Tina and I were discussing
what heaven was like yesterday.
"Will it have cars?"
"What? Pollution!"
"The cars in heaven won't run on gas!"
"Maybe we won't need cars in heaven."
"Will we still eat in heaven?"
"Can we pig out on chicharon (pork cracklings)
and lechon (roast pork)?"
On and on.
We can only know what heaven is like
from the verses in the Bible.
Heaven is the beautiful place where God lives,
a place with no mourning or hunger.
The question is,
how do we get there?
Jesus said, "I AM THE WAY"!!!
Would you like to help me get my art
into the big screens in
Times Square, New York City?
Just visit Art Takes Times Square

Thank you!

Wonderful! Love your pages! Love the message too. My favorite topic! :) If you have not read Randy Alcorn's book "Heaven" yet, I highly recommend it! :) Have a blessed weekend! :)
ReplyDeleteI always enjoy your work, beautiful illustrations!
ReplyDeleteI'm excited that there won't be any tears or sorrow or pain in heaven! Great post!
ReplyDeleteYou and your sister Tina do not need to worry how you will get to heaven IF you have each personally received Jesus into your heart.
ReplyDeleteHe will see to it that you arrive safely when it is your time to leave this earth. Yes, there will be eating, because there is to be a marriage supper. I don't know if it will include meat - but there will be much delicious fruit. It is fun to speculate what will happen up there. I believe we will not need cars or trains or planes just decide to be someplace and you will be there - no wings needed either.
I love thinking about heaven!!! I am doing a series on it in June and I can't wait! Love your picture!!
ReplyDeleteYou can definitely create your own picture book, be the writer and the illustrator at the same time! I always love your art and your reflections.

ReplyDeletePatsy, you are a blessing. I love your mini-devotionals and always look forward to seeing what you have for us. I am so thankful that God is getting his Word out through you and your beautiful drawings/paintings.

Hi Patsy! This is so lovely. And with both of my parents in Heaven waiting for me, that verse is particularly meaningful. Thank you.
ReplyDeleteFound your through ppf, and glad I did. Your work is simultaneously faithful and whimsical - I dare say a combination that pleases the Father

ReplyDeleteLovely artwork, I especially love the whimsical houses at the top, those are really cool!
ReplyDeleteThis is absolutely breathtakingly beautiful! I love the conversation and those pieces of art are superb! WONDERFUL!
ReplyDeleteWhat a fun visit for Spiritual Sunday. My grandkids have been asking me a ton of questions about heaven as well, so we are currently working on learning the many comforting Bible memory verses about heaven for kids and grand children. It's as much a blessing for me as I pray it is for them. :) Have a blessed week.
ReplyDeleteAh Heaven...fruit for sure, I hope. I love fruit but I'm sure the peaches and strawberries are so much juicier there--probably won't need to set them on the windowsill there to ripen all the way.
ReplyDeleteSo thankful I know the Father!
What beautiful images your heart can share!
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing your beautiful art work again. I like the way you illustrate God's truths.
ReplyDeleteBlessings,
