Thy Kingdom Come .

Josie likes to talk about the kingdom of God. She is constantly asking questions about the kingdom, and heaven, and what will happen when Jesus comes back, and all kinds of things like that. One day she really got excited and told me how she is going to do everything she ever wanted to do, like swim with the dolphins and explore way down deep in the bottom of the ocean and collect seashells from down there and fly around in the sky and jump around on the clouds, and best of all, she's going to sit on Jesus' lap and she's going to meet Great Grandpa Ralph. The child never ceases to amaze me. Then she asked, "Mom, are we going to look the same when Jesus comes back? Will old people still be old? And babies, will they still be babies?" I told her that the Bible says that we will have new bodies, and I think that we will be the very best that we've ever been. She said, "So, like 7?"
