As they were walking along and talking together, suddenly a chariot of fire and horses of fire appeared and separated the two of them, and Elijah went up to heaven in a whirlwind. — 2 Kings 2:11
I had an interesting dream one night. I dreamed that Kim and I took hold of the hands of our children, and, as a family of six, we stepped off the porch and walked through the sky heaven bound. One thing that struck me was this: How very calm it felt, how perfectly normal to be skating through the sky on our way to meet Jesus.
Enoch walked into heaven. Elijah rode. I don’t know how you will get there. In a Porsche perhaps. Or an F-16.
The most important thing about heaven, of course, is that God is there. The Inventor of Fun. The Designer of Us. The One who brings together in perfect harmony everything that is wild and wacky, soothing and beautiful, peaceful and delicious, awesome, serious, fun and holy.
But, of course, God isn’t just in heaven. He’s also here. That’s why, once in a while, even though you didn’t quite plan on it, a bit of heaven breaks through and grabs our hearts and points us toward eternity.
Be encouraged!

What happens when you partner with Dwight Clough Ministries?
Victims of violent crimes and survivors of abuse are finding peace,
wholeness, the power to forgive and the strength to set boundaries.
Those ensnared by addictions are finding freedom. Marriages are being
restored. Families are strengthened. Christian brothers and sisters in
restricted lands who face persecution are finding strength and
encouragement. Young believers are learning how to walk with the Lord,
and people are coming into the faith for the first time. None of this
happens as a result of one person’s efforts, but rather this is God’s
work as He blesses the sacrifice of many people including yourself. We
partner with you, with other ministries, and, most significantly, with
the Lord. That’s how the supernatural happens.
