Will there be food in heaven?


Not only is there food in heaven, but there is a feast that goes on for eternity (source: The Sinner's Guide by Venerable Louis of Granada). I was like, whaaat? Do I really want to eat for the rest of my afterlife? But after thinking about it while eating a juicy, sweet peach, I decided YES. What else other than a delicious chocalate chip muffin, shoots me out of bed in the morning? Face it, we love food.

We snack on it, talk about it, text about it, have jobs about it, and go places solely dedicated to it. There's channels, magazines, books, and newspaper sections all about it. Who hasn't asked a friend if she could have a teeny tiny piece of what she's eating?  And most of the time it's where we hang out with friends. Food connects us. Most of us have chatted around a table of cups filled to the brim with frozen yogurt. It just goes to show how much Jesus understands us and how He was once human too.
