Worshiping Christ in Heaven

I can see where you are coming from and understand the questioning. It is pretty complicated since the Bible really doesn't reveal too much about what it will be like for us in heaven and I don't know that I or anyone can give you a real answer because of that but, I can offer my opinion. What matters to us here on Earth will probably not matter in heaven so the "me" time may not be an issue. You won't be tired (reward) or frustrated (reward) or need a break from the day to day routine (reward) so what's the purpose of "me" time? No need for vacations because all is perfect and you NEED NOTHING (reward). No sickness (reward). See where I'm going with this? There is so much here on earth we are used to having to go through that we don't even think about how great it would be if we didn't have to go through that. When we think "reward" we tend to think of actually getting our hands on something just for us and I suppose in a way that's true but if you NEED to not be tired...Does that make sense? I think I'm rambling and really don't mean to. I just think things in heaven will be so different that we cannot possibly imagine it while we are stuck here on earth. The things we think or worry over will be so far from our thoughts because we will be in constant fellowship with Him and that is our greatest reward. Also I think that whatever reward we get we will be sooo undeserving. So unworthy. Why would God give us any type of "reward" at all? Only one reason. He loves us that much. In Christ, Cathy

Heaven is in a completely different plane and level of existence compared to where we are now. It is difficult to make comparisons between this life and life in heaven. We are bound in time and nature and tend to understand and interpret things based on our perspective of life on earth. God has lots of things in store for those who have faith in Him, things that are beyond our comprehension and imagination. When I ponder about this matter, I always think of the caterpillar analogy. It couldn't see things beyond an inch of it's sight and maybe thinking that the world is just like what appears to it but when it turns into a butterfly and learned to fly, a completely new world will be opened to it. To be in Heaven is to meet and live in the presence of our creator whom we have not seen but trusted all these years. For that alone, Heaven will be a wonderful place.

I think there will be a "mission" for us just like there is a "mission" for the angels when they ascended. We will have stuff to do based on our unique abilities and interests. We won't be married in heaven, but we can still work as a partnership with people that we were attached to in life, if we want and if they want. The main difference is that we will all be united as one with God, so there won't be any bickering about what faith is best or what the truth is because it will all be revealed exactly as it is to everyone. We worship Him by wanting to be with Him and do his will. And, we will love it. I think that, maybe, we have to help other beings in the universe, or perhaps we help with developing planets and animals. I'm sure God will have a plan for everyone up there that will be very pleasing. I think it will be a lot of fun.

I don't know, if I can have eternity in Heaven rather than the alternative I look forward to "Him" time every second. I honestly don't think it will matter, I think once we are there it will be so different from what we are used to here on earth that we won't be comparing life there to life here anymore.

I have to say that I read the same thing. The twenty four elders worship God day and night. You have to remember one thing though, the Bible says that we will be changed. We wont have the same needs in heaven that we have down here. We have never experienced the complete awesomeness of God. The Bible says that God is love and why would we want anything else but complete and total love, acceptance and security. I mean, if you think about it, those are the things that we long for on earth.
