Heaven on Earth Event

When I lived in Kansas City, I worked with a man who managed all of the happenings at the KC Masonic Temple.  He offered me much advice back then, like an angel to me, and when one of his suggestions to me was to plan an event for his extremely ornate space, I immediately began planning a, "Heaven on Earth" event.

The following notes are a rough sketch of what I envision.  These are simply my notes.  An event has yet to occur, so feel free to take my ideas, add to them, offer your suggestions, plan your own event, etc.  The greatest compliment to me would be to gain wind of the fact that you hosted your own "Heaven on Earth" event, inspired by my notes and vision!  I am available and at your service!

From Revelations, "Another angel came in holding a censer of gold.  He took his place at the altar of incense and was given large amounts of incense to deposit on the altar of gold in front of the throne, together with the prayers of all God's holy ones.  From the angel's hand, the smoke of the incense went up before God, and with the prayers of God's people.

Psalm 141: Let my prayer come like incense before you; the lifting up of my hands like the evening sacrifice.

TASTE:

Wine - for the Blood

Bread - for the Body

Tea by Tea Drops - Heavenly tea

TOUCH:

Fuzzy blankets/pillows draped on the furnishings

Possibilities

I really like to keep up with the times and one of my goals right now is to learn the shuffle.

If you don't know, it's a dance that can be seen on the video to the LMFAO song, "Party Rock Anthem."

I posted it here for you to see and make sure to watch the insane break dancing circle in the middle:



Anyways, a lot of people have posted youtube videos that teach you how to do it, but this is my favorite. Pretty easy to follow!



This girl was pretty fun, too...plus, I kinda love her hair ;)

Enjoy!




I really posted this so that I can learn it, but feel free to give it a shot yourself.  It will make you smile :-D

It can actually cure hangovers, grumpiness, headaches, bad attitudes, laziness, old age, slow metabolism, and any challenges you may have getting people of the opposite sex to take notice of you.  This dance is magical.

Have fun!!! Stay young!
