Anyway. Let's revitalize this idea. Imagine that you cannot walk, and you wait all your life to go to heaven and run like a madman. Cool, yes? But the running we will be capable of is far greater than you or I can imagine.
It is quite possible that I have been given a glimpse of such possibilities. With a large athletic background, I can imagine some pretty cool gymnastics.
Try this: plyometric (jumping) off walls. Two legged bulk impact from the side (onto the wall), cartilage and rib structure rippling up and down your back, heels vibrating/oscillating against the wall, ligaments and tendons in your knees, hips and shoulders stretching and singing with tension, slow motion building up of bent potential energy in your legs like a huge bronze yeoman's bow, then explosion away from the wall so fast you could break your own knees. Yes? I like it. Again and again, perhaps three jumps per second, pounding off of walls, ceilings and floors in sickeningly fast forward motion.
Now let's try something else. The new Jerusalem is 1400 miles in length, width, and height. It's a cube. No joke. Base jump from the top. With no air resistance you have 11.3 minutes of free fall and finish at a little under 15,000 miles per hour. With air resistance, the trip will take you about 11.4 hours with an average speed of 123 mph. Talk about a vacation! Wahoo!
Anyway. No matter how much I anticipate heaven, God has made it better than I can imagine.
Go God!
