I still find it difficult to find one thing I am afraid of until I bumped into one thing which I count so important in my life that I am afraid of.
Twice, I have dreamt of this particular dream and ever since then, I have always been afraid of not missing it. What is that thing?
It is "Heaven". I have heard this word over and over again "Nobody wants to die but they want to go to Heaven". That is true but the real fact is that death is inevitable. We all are indebted to death and we would leave this earth someday. Where would I be then if I die?
I have dreamt of making it to Heaven where I saw Jesus welcoming me, holding my hands in his and leading me to where my destination is which was Heaven as I saw Angels in white robe singing and shouting Hallelujah. I woke up and cried that day, and that prompted me to pray very hard not to miss such a beautiful home.
Till today, I am still afraid. "What if I die, will I make Heaven?" This is the only question that kept coming which I keep begging God to allow me reign with Him. I am not afraid of any other thing except this particular thing because some day, we will die.
At night when I am about to sleep, I ask for forgiveness because I keep thinking what if I don't wake up again. At least let me not miss it.
Heaven is real, so is Hell. Death is real and we all will die, but the good news is that those who are in Christ, though they are dead, they will live in the kingdom eternally. This is why we all should keep checking our lives as to where we aren't doing well. Keep asking for His forgiveness and continue living a holy life.
May God help us. Amen.
