We do not need to speculate on what heaven will be like. It is enough to know that we will be for ever with Him.

In this world our contact with Him is shadowy, for we can only see through a glass darkly. It is spasmodic, for we are poor creatures and cannot live always on the heights. But the best definition of it is to say that heaven is that state where we will always be with Jesus, and where nothing will separate us from Him any more.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7477</guid></item></channel></rss>
