This is going to be a really simple blog post today, with no real answer from my end of things.  I just realized that I tend to ask a lot of questions that nobody really knows the answer to, and for some reason I think that’s okay.  There’s a little bit of mystery within life that keeps us guessing and keeps us going. 

Is heaven really “up”?

It’s simple enough, I know, but I’m really curious if it is.  I think of the Kingdom as something that’s constantly surrounding us, not something we look up to.  Am I wrong?  I know that in Jacob’s dream he saw angels going up and down on a ladder.  I know that traditionally everyone’s prayed ‘up’ to heaven, people always tend to look ‘up’ when praying to God, and all sorts of things.

But does heaven really have to be up or is it something that can dwell with and around us too?

Can somebody help me out with this?
