Heaven!

We are all a little closer to heaven than we were yesterday and a step closer to Glory! Imagine a place where there is never a harsh word spoken; where sin is no more, and joy lines the golden street; where the leaves of trees are for the healing of the nations, and there is no more sorrow or pain. These are some biblical descriptions of what Heaven is like. We know that there will be many children there, and that God Himself will be present wherever we go; yes, heaven is a real place. It’s a place where there is no night because the Lord is the light of it; where there is a city foursquare, adorned as a bride for her husband, with her great beauty she awaits him; with the foundation thereof made of all sorts of precious stones casting many colors in every direction as a multi-colored prism of light, and the street is paved with pure gold, as clear as crystal. It’s a place of peace and rest, and an honorable place for all the redeemed of the Lord. This wonderful place called Heaven has twelve gates standing majestically along a golden wall, and the gates are as pearls of great price. There is also a pure river of life coming out of the great throne in the midst of the city, and a rainbow encircles the throne of grace.
