After talking about Heaven last night in cell group, I accidentally opened my Bible to Zachariah 2. It's talking about heaven, and I love these verses: (v: 1-5)
I looked up, and there before me was a man with a measuring line in his hand. I asked, "Where are you going?"
"To measure Jerusalem, to find out how wide and how long it is."
While the angel who was speaking to me was leaving, another angel came to meet him, saying, "Run tell that young man, 'Jerusalem will be a city without walls because of the great number of people and animals in it. And I myself will be a wall of fire around it,' declares the Lord, 'and I will be it's glory within.'"
So basically Zachariah's standing there like "woah" at everything, and he turns to see a man with a tape measure in his hand. He says, "What are you doing with that?" And the man says, "Measuring Jerusalem."
There's an angel who was talking with Zachariah, and as he walks away, a messenger from the Lord runs up and says, all out of breath, "Wait! - Go tell that man" - *heave* - "that the Lord says that Jerusalem" - *heave* - "will be a city without walls, and the Lord himself will be a fire wall around it."
Cool, right?
I've got to read the rest of Zachariah now.
