Heaven's Best

The fact is, these bodies we wear are wearing out. Someone has said that you know you are aging when it takes you longer to rest up than it did to get tired. The hymn Never Grow Old means more to me every time we sing it at church. I’m looking forward to my Heavenly home.

1 Thessalonians 4:16-17 For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first: Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord.

Heaven is a place where the trials, burdens, sins and faults of this world can’t enter. There will be no death, no tears, no burdens, no trials, no devil, no evil, no sadness, no sorrow, no grief---nothing to defile, discourage or defeat.

We can speak of golden streets, jasper walls, angelic hosts, pearl gates and foundations of precious stones; but the presence of my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ is what will make Heaven Heavenly!  His glory will light that city. Awesome!
