John 14:1- 3 Let not your heart be troubled: ye believe in God, believe also in me.
[2] In my Father's house are many mansions: if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you.
[3] And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again, and receive you unto myself; that where I am, there ye may be also.
Heaven will be a place of peace for the people of God. None of the many afflictions of earth can touch us in glory, Rev. 21:4,
No one will die. No hearts will break. No one will weep. No one will hurt.
Every saint of God will enjoy the perfections of that city, along with the awesome presence of our Savior and His Father. They will be the greatest glory.
We will see the nail-scared hands of Jesus and remember the cruel cross as we worship Him in perfect bodies. We will sing His glories with perfect voices, and shout His praises in perfect holiness, Rev. 4-5.
1 John 3:2 Beloved, now are we the sons of God, and it doth not yet appear what we shall be: but we know that, when he shall appear, we shall be like him; for we shall see him as he is.

“Oft times the day seems long, —. Our trials hard to bear. —. We´re tempted to complain, —. to murmur and despair. —. But Christ will soon appear. — to catch his bride away! —. All tears forever over in God’s eternal day!
CHORUS:
“It will be worth it all when we see Jesus! —. Life’s trials will seem so small
when we see Christ. —. One glimpse of his dear face, —. all sorrow will erase. —. So, bravely run the race till we see Christ.
“At times the sky seems dark, —. with not a ray of light; —. We’re tossed and driven on, —. no human help in sight. —. But there is One in heaven, —. Who knows our deepest care; —. Let Jesus solve your problems, —. just go to him in prayer.
“Life’s day will soon be o’re, —. all storms forever past; —. We’ll cross the great divide. — to Glory, safe at last! —. We’ll share the joys of heaven: —. a harp, a home, a crown; —. The tempter will be banished, —. We’ll lay our burdens down.”
