Heaven's Unknown

Chapter 1 - Genesis

Heaven is beautiful. When I say it's beyond your wildest dreams, I'm not lying. God has mansions for all of his angels, and roads paved in gold. It's unimaginable. You can't summon up the marvelousness of this place.

Heaven is endless, and so is God's love. God plans out our entire life and looks at all the sins we will commit when we get there, but still chooses to let us live out of His grace. When I was on Earth, that's what I wanted to stress the most --- God loves us so much, more than anyone can. How can anyone love you more than the creator of love?

My name is Evelyn. I was called back home on March 13th, 2011. Car accident --- I broke my neck. Actually, I want to go into detail.

First off, let me start by saying that I have a very close relationship with God. It was always in me, but I never knew why, until now, now that I am an angel. God created my path right back to him. He allowed me to be born with Christ within me; He doesn't do this to everyone, trust me. Some people in this world.... Ugh. Pure satan. I'm blessed.

Anyways, I was on my way home from volleyball practice, a sport that I played literally all of my life. It was my passion. I was really great at it, and God knew this about me, so He blessed me with national tournaments and such.

I got into my hooptie (I know, haha.) and I was making my way to my boyfriend's house. I knew he was trouble, but I don't want to talk about him. Long story short, he wasn't a man of God. When you're with someone who doesn't live for God, then you're in trouble, sister.

This dude used to treat me like a slave, and surprisingly, I put up with him for three years. Stupid, I know. I was fooled by a fake believer. But, I don't regret a thing, because it led me to see God's face.

"Evelyn, go get me some cigarettes from the gas station, and hurry, I'm aggy." Kenneth said, in an disgusted tone. It was almost like he didn't even like me. I was simply his girlfriend for his own financial and emotional benefit. What an narcissistic asshole.

"Hey, why don't you get your own? I have to pick up my little sister and take her to church. It's Wednesday, aren't you coming?" I said, trying to change the tone. I hated when he acted like this.

"No, fuck church. I need my damn cigs ASAP. Bring them first."

"No, Kenneth, you can kiss my ass. I'm tired of you controlling me, and I won't put your fucking cigarettes before my little sister, ESPECIALLY before God. So get your own damn ----"

CRASH.

The car flipped three times, and flew into the lake. Talking or texting while driving can be very dangerous. Very. My body was never found. Kenneth didn't even bother to look for me until a week after I was dead.

My family was devastated. They put up "Missing" posters all across town. It's been almost four years, and they still have no clue as to where I could be, but that's OK. God told me he will handle it.

I died instantly, and my soul just came out of my body. I floated over the vast lake, looking down at the water, seeing my lifeless corpse. It was almost like all of the pain, sorrow, and bad memories left. I felt nothing but peace.

Before I knew it, I was in space! I could breathe; oh, how beautiful it was.

I went above space, and saw a grand staircase.... I knew this was it. I was dead, and I was going to meet my Father.

I ran up the stairs so fast, and it's crazy because in Heaven, you never get tired. Heaven is eternal peace, energy, happiness, and love. There were a million stairs, but the excitement of seeing heaven drove my spirit.

When I got to the top, the light was extremely blinding. I covered my eyes, continuing to walk forward.

"Evelyn." A deep, loud voice spoke.

"Yes?" I said. I was speaking in Hebrew.... Now I know that Hebrew is the language spoken by everyone in Heaven, although some speak many languages.

"This is your day of judgement. Here, I will tell you everything about your life, and determine where your soul will spend eternity."

I had so many questions, but I didn't see who was speaking to me. I knew it was God. I just wanted to see Him.

"God, where are you?"

"Evelyn, I am your maker."

I got nervous. I knew I was a good kid, not perfect but pretty good. I loved God, and followed Jesus. I read the bible & prayed often. What could I be worried about? I still was, anyway.

"Evelyn, you have sinned, but you repent. You lived for me and not the world. Because of your good deeds, dedication to Me and your youth, I will allow you into the kingdom of Heaven."

My soul floated up, almost uncontrollably. God had accepted me with open arms, and my soul was smiling.
