God the Father is going to freely give us our heart's desire in eternity. Your favorite hobbies, foods, recreation... God will give us everything to support our interests. Just as an earthly father who wants to support his children's interests and ambitions, so also will our heavenly Father give unto us the desires of our heart.

We will have literal possessions in Heaven. In Matthew 6:20 Jesus told us to lay up for OURSELVES treasures in Heaven. The Lord promised that no thief could ever steal them. You won't have to sell and lose your home to pay for legal expenses in Heaven. You won't lose many of your personal belongings, having strangers come into your home and take away your stuff. No one will steal your car and trash it out, driving it into a telephone pole at high-speed. You won't lose your pets one day and never even get to say goodbye (after loving and feeding them for 9 years). You won't lose nearly everything you've ever worked for in a single day. You won't lose 15 years of retirement savings in a divorce. You won't have to endure others enjoy living in your home that you once enjoyed. You won't have to endure seeing your wife (or husband) involved with another. There will be no deaths or suicides in Heaven. None of these horribly traumatic things will happen in Heaven. Here on earth they happen every day to millions of people worldwide.

The Lord promised that neither rust nor moth would deteriorate our possessions. Neither dry rot nor humidity will ruin our possessions in Heaven. It's ironic, the Lord wants us to forsake all possessions down here on earth, so we can gain all up there in eternity. I believe that we will have our beloved pets back in Heaven that will never be taken from us again. No more tears of losing everything that we ever loved or cared about... gone in a flash! No more no-win situations where we have absolutely no control, as our life is torn away from us. It won't happen in Heaven. Jesus won't allow it!
