heaven is not static

I was greatly depressed recently over a friend leaving permanently. Bummer. I was running through mood swings and imagination, lost in thought and quite sad.

I tried to console myself with heaven, but a constant state of joy seemed to be ruined by a constant existence of loss of other people.

But then I thought, why does heaven have to be static? In fact it isn't. Every day we will learn more and more about God. And it won't be like 'oh, he's bigger now', it will be like entirely new facets and dimensions of logic that will boggle our mind and make us entirely forget about human relationships.

I am reminded of the song "Once you feel the weight of glory, all your pains will fade to memory."

So no matter what mayhem and unimaginable sorrow you're going though right now, trust that things will change. Not only is it very likely to change in a month, or even a week, but even if you carry it the rest of your life, you'll die sometime, and then Gods glory will be too much to ignore.
