Heavenly Asphalt September, 20, 2014 Heaven: My Fathers House The great street of the city was of pure gold, like transparent glass. Revelation 21:21, NIV If the apostle John hasnt already conveyed to us that My Fathers House is spectacular, his description of the streets surely does. But I wonder if there is a subtle message to us contained in his description - a message that my wise mother, with her characteristic humor, pointed out to me when she dryly exclaimed that you can tell what God thinks of gold because He paves the streets of heaven with it! Gold is really just heavenly asphalt! In other words, there are many things down here on earth that we give a top priority to, which in eternity will be inconsequential and insignificant. Its sobering to contemplate how much time, effort, sacrifice, compromise, and attention we give to acquiring and increasing our supply of something that is totally insignificant in eternity. What are your priorities? As you live them out, will they have eternal value and significance?
