God, sometimes I feel as if keeping a few people I am not fond of out of heaven may not be a bad idea, or too much to ask. Will they really mind spending eternity away from me, out of my sight and out of my mind? Would it be possible, at least, to compartmentalize heaven based on who got along here on earth? It seems sensible.
But, that is not how You work, is it, God? We often believe we are in charge of making the rules, deciding who gets what, when and how much. It becomes very easy to keep that mindset when considering Your will, on earth or in heaven. While we find it easy to project that with which we feel most comfortable onto You, the reality is that Your ways are inclusive above all else. You made all of us and we all remain as Your children. Heaven can hold a whole lot of us and there is room for all of us to finally figure out ways to get along. Amen.
