Missing Heaven by 18 inches

I was browsing my files and stumbled upon one of my old scribbles.

While preparing for tonight’s [Obsessions 121405] message, I came across a little tract with a title, ‘Missing Heaven by 18 inches”. The title made me wonder, what could possibly be the “thing” that the small paper refers to. I thought of the Bible, mine is about 6-8 inches only. I decided to read it, probably took only a minute or two, and discovered the mystery.

To my surprise, 18 inches is the distance between the heart and the head. The article talks about how many have come to know the Lord only “intellectually” but “not with their heart.” A relationship with Christ is a personal experience and not simply academic cognizance.

Nobody wants to miss heaven by 18 inches. Do you?
