a small question

I should be writing a paper. It's due tomorrow; I still have at least ten more pages to write. It'll happen though. Then a statistics text on Thursday, and I will be FINISHED!

In the meantime, my question.

I love to think about heaven and talk about heaven and hear people read from Revelation 21 about the new heavens and the new earth and the Holy City coming down from God and about how everything will be made new and there will be no more death or mourning or crying or pain. Oh, those words are good for my soul. And, I am thankful to be in a church that loves to tell me about heaven and all things being made right.

Hence my question: I know in heaven we will work, right? Adam and Eve worked in the garden. And I figure that my work will be something like what it is now, since I'm going to be the same person, but glorified. So what does that mean for me, and people like me in so many different vocations, whose work here on earth is aimed at making things right? What will we do? When education (if it even exists) is just and doctors are no longer necessary because we will be whole? What will my work be?
