Heaven is REAL

It was February 19, 2013 when my brother shared to me the greatest story I've ever heard in my life. Maybe you're wondering, why it took me this long to share it and just pour my heart out about what I thought of it.

I ain't the worthiest of person alive and I am surely no better Christian. It took me awhile to just find strength from above to share what my brother experienced. Again, all that I am writing here is for the glory of our Almighty God. 

It was around 9 in the morning when me and ten years old brother cuddled in bed, trying to trained him in controlling his bad habit of sucking his lips and holding someone's ears. I gave him an hour to control himself for it in exchange for a food. Indeed he made it to 1 hour since he wanted the food so much. After a few minutes of laughing and having fun, we talked about our late mother who died just a few days back---as I shared, I felt the missing piece in us and started crying.. on the other hand, he was trying to wipe my tears as it was slowly welling of my face and said, "Ate, don't cry mama's in heaven now". The moment I heard him said that, it gave me so much peace and asked him. How did you know mama's in heaven? And he said, I saw her with Jesus beside her. That was the time he started sharing about his personal encounter with Jesus in heaven :) 

He said, he's scared to share it because people might not believe him. As described, he said, he saw a Golden gate and Big house inside. As he gets in---there's a table outside the house and people were sitting there. They were so bright and some of them has wings. He also added that he saw my mom there but she's not talking to him but my mom was beside Jesus. My mom has wings and is also bright!!! He also said that there's this one person sitting on a 'GOLDEN' chair with 'GOLDEN' "barbwire" (thorns) as describe by my brother---around His head. He called my brother by his name and told him, I WILL SEND YOU BACK TO EARTH AND TELL YOUR FRIENDS AND RELATIVES AND DO YOUR MISSION.

It's not my mission to write his story but given the opportunity to personally hear his experience, I can't contain the happiness in me when God chose my brother to have an amazing vision of Heaven.  Wishing deep to have the same experience too but I don't know what God's plan for Him but anticipating for a greater purpose of my brothers life. 

As we went downstairs, he decided to share the story to my three siblings and later on shared it to my father as we were heading to my grandparents house. Of course, not all of them believe him and my father and other brother doubted him as he shared his story but I was amazed when he defended himself and said, Papa, God said that to those who believe, they will go to heaven, to those who don't they can't. It's okay if they don't believe me, it's their choice. 

I can't imagine how a ten years old is able to defend his heavenly experience. At first he was too scared on whether or not people will believe him but I told him not to be scared because he is only here to do his mission and not to make people believe it or not.
