1 John 3:2 -  Dear friends, now we are children of God, and what we will be has not yet been made known. But we know that when Christ appears,[a] we shall be like him, for we shall see him as he is.

When I lead Bible class in my church, there are times when the only answer I have to a difficult question is: "We will have to ask Jesus that one when we get to heaven." We as humans are an inquisitive bunch. We want to know and understand everything right away. But there are simply some things that we will never know this side of heaven.

What we need to remember is not so much what we do not know, but what we do know:

• We are children of God.
• Christ will appear to take us home to heaven.
• We are dearly loved by our Savior.
• We are forgiven and saved from all our sins through the suffering and death of Christ.

In the end, the questions about what we don't know do not really matter, because what we do know is all that matters.
