From Mia’s heart….
Passion. Have you ever become so passionate about something
that it seems to disrupt your whole being? Then those around you
have to start hearing about it… and if it all goes well, you stir up a
passion in them! That’s all you want to talk about, think about…you
become thirstier and thirstier and never become satisfied. That’s the
way I have felt about Heaven for over four years! I imagine it, I read
everything I can about it. I pray and pray that I can see just a glimpse of
Heaven. I look for every sign that points to the time of our rapture. I
can’t wait to get there! And the thing is, I just get more and more
stirred up in my spirit. I get more and more excited…which brings me
to my favorite verses:
Colossians 3:1-4 (NKJV)
“If then you were raised with Christ, seek those things which are above, where
Christ is, sitting at the right hand of God. 2 Set your mind on things above, not on
things on the earth. 3 For you died, and your life is hidden with Christ in God. 4 When
Christ who is our life appears, then you also will appear with Him in glory.”
Sometimes we can’t explain where our passion comes from;
however, I can explain mine. On September 8, 2010 my daughter, Bree,
at the age of 20, went to sleep and never woke up. Jesus just pulled her
up to Heaven. Shock went through our whole family—my husband,
kids, parents, Bree’s aunts, uncles and cousins, friends…just about
everyone who knew her was shocked. Bree loved the LORD. She was a
SUPER kid…athletic, intelligent, beautiful and above all, she LOVED
Jesus. Her cousins would just follow her around because she was older,
yes, but mainly because she loved them so much and they could feel it.
My husband and I have read her journals and letters to Jesus over and
over these past several years….and there is one thing we know for
absolute certainty….Bree, our precious, precious daughter, is in
Heaven! How do we KNOW that? Because she truly believed in Jesus
and what He did for her on the cross.
This is a picture of my sweet daughter, Bree.

I ache to see her again, hold her and just tell her how much I love
her. But this heartache and pain has been such a blessing, as it has
awakened my spirit and opened my eyes. Heaven is real! Bree is more
alive now than ever! It’s just a thin veil that separates us from a world
we can’t physically see, hear or touch unless the Lord allows it. And
sometimes He does. I believe that those on the other side of the veil
see us clearly, and are even cheering us on in life. That’s another blog post
in itself.
This all brings me to a point. My kids have been asking me to
start a blog, and I’ve even received a prophecy that I would be
blogging. Someday. I must admit that after years of ignoring these
signs, I finally was convinced by my persistent daughter and her
husband, Christy and Andrew to just write “something.” Sooo, the ice
has been broken and the adventure begins! Thanks for listening…
All glory be to God Almighty!

Revelation 21:4
“And God will wipe away every tear from their eyes;
there shall be no more death, nor sorrow, nor crying.
There shall be no more pain, for the former things have passed away.”
