Kingdom of Heaven

The Kingdom for Heaven is not meant for this life. Even though we are here for a very short time, it will make such a large impact as to how we spend our lives on the other side.

The phrase Kingdom of Heaven refers to a state or life of harmony with God, man and nature. Different cultures around the world use the phrase to rally people to their belief system.

Jesus when he spoke on Mt Olivet said, "Blessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the Kingdom of Heaven." There are other references such as: "Seek ye first...", "The kingdom of heaven is within you...", and "the kingdom of heaven is at hand."

I know different men have abused the phrase. Some for selfish pleasure. Others have used the phrase as a movie title.

This Christmas where is your Kingdom of Heaven? Is helping those around you or is it stuck in selfish pleasure?
