Family in Heaven...? [+ favourites]

I am so confused....Will we feel the same love for our immediate family in heaven or will we feel the same amount for all...? Really hard to think that, I would not feel more for my mom or brother, you know what im saying? Will my daughter be my daughter?...

I believe that we will no longer be individuals - so it would be the same amount of love or more.

You'd love me as much as you'd love your brother.

more love than you can fathom, equally for everything.

Deep question, if heaven is perfect then those entering must be perfected . . . without strife? To vie with others would bring disharmony to that existence so in as Wyote states there would exist unbounded love toward all . . . Rather hard to imagine, let alone exist within ourselves for a mere second in time?

Thats what the fire is all about. Metals are made stronger and more pure by fire. My dad read that scripture to me a hundred times, I can't remember where its at though, but we will be made perfect.

But I don't think we will be individuals anymore. Once again I looked for that Gnostic scripture about truth harvested, then again it may have been Jewish, but these scriptures don't have a concordance, so it's hard to find things.

But we will be harvested in the end and the shaf will be thrashed out and we all come together.

But I think the experience will be far greater then harvesting wheat or being refined by fire - But how do you explain what you cannot see.

Ya, how does one explain or relate to another the feelings of love? Phyical perceptions may vary but being tangible objects, we accept there being but abstracts like emotional being, we are hard pressed to define.
