age in heaven?
what age would we be in heaven? I sometimes wonder....will babies and children who die still be babies and children in heaven? and what about the elderly people do they remain elderly at heaven?.... Some suggested everybody in heaven would be at the age they liked best on earth but isnt it odd? what if these people are trying to find each other after so many years spent apart? Say that you die and start looking around for you're grandmother but she choose to be in her late teens how is it possible that you are going to find her?.... would you be instantly reunited with your love ones in heaven? do they still remember the lives they had spent on earth? would they still remember you?
I have also had these thoughts and they are very good thoughts because it shows us that we are heavenly minded. There are many people who are christians that do not really ponder what heaven will be like because they are so earthly minded. One thing that's for sure is that heaven is going to be so far past our greatest imaginations. Our minds are not even capable of imagining how wonderful it will be. This is awesome!!!
That's an interesting question, and one that I'm not sure that I'm qualified to answer, but I am going to give it my best shot. I don't have any Scriptures to back up my opinion, so I have to qualify it as being just my opinion, but, here goes: I don't think age matters in Heaven. Age is relative to our physical bodies, and we won't be burdened by our physical forms in Heaven, Don't misunderstand me, we live in a physical world, now, so we need our bodies to get around, but, our spirits are capable of so much more. We will still recognize each other in Heaven, but not by physical appearance, more by feeling a familiarity of the spirit (I've even heard it said that we will instantly recognize others that we never met--no one will have to introduce you to Moses or Lazarus, you will instantly know who they are). As Brian Brown said in his comment, "Our minds are not even capable of imagining how wonderful it will be."
I myself think that you will be able to find anyone when you want to, as a sort of miraculous power. As far as age goes, I do believe in being whatever age you want to be at, but I also think you could "age" yourself if you want to as well. I do not have anything to back up my ideas, just my own personal thoughts on the subject. Regardless, Heaven is something that no one can ever understand, it is wonderful beyond imagination.
