IMAGINE

Can you imagine weightlesness? Think about the problems on earth that weight bring up: Stereotype, irrational judement, uncomfort, inadequacy to perform certain skills, etc... Weight makes things heavy, makes it difficult to carry certain objects and burdens. Weight is what makes a burden a burden.

I sat in a tub of water today as I meditated on God's word, I searched for a perfect balance, and could find none. When my hand was under the water, it was pulled to the top; when it was above the water, it was pulled to the bottom, there was no perfect balance. One could put their hand half in each, but as I tried this, it made simply an uncomfortable tension, half of my hand being pulled up, but the other pulled down.

This imperfection of balance will be impresent in the heavenly realm when we have reached eternity with God. Burdens will not be held, for they will lose their weight. I challenge you this, how much more will the absence of force other than that of the perfect God, affect a life of perfection? I think it is no mistake to make the assumption that the absence of gravity other than that towards our Lord and savior may be the best thing that a believer shall ever experience.
