heaven

 Sometimes when I get discouraged or frustrated 

With people, 

School

 Or just the world in general

 I like to think about heaven.

I cannot wait for the day that I see my Savior face to face.

I cannot wait until I will spend forever

Worshiping

Praising

Exalting my Saviors name 

FOREVER!

I cannot wait until there are

No more tears

No more shame

No more heartache

No more frustration

No more pain

 

What a day of rejoicing that will be!

But, until then, 

I can only wait 

And praise my Savior on this earth

And bring as many people with me as I can

 

 This is an excerpt from a story I read a while ago from Dr. Harry Rimmer to Dr. Charles Fuller:

"Next you are to talk about Heaven. I am interested in that land, because I have held a clear title to a bit of property there for over fifty-five years. I did not buy it. It was given to me without money and without price. But the Donor purchased it for me at tremendous sacrifice. I am not holding it for speculation since the title is not transferable. It is not a vacant lot. For more than half a century I have been sending materials out of which the greatest Architect and Builder of the universe has been building a home for me, which will never need to be remodeled or repaired because it will suit me perfectly, individually, and will never grow old. Termites cannot undermine its foundations, for they rest upon the Rock of Ages. Fire cannot destroy it. Floods cannot wash it away. No locks or bolts will ever be placed upon its doors, for no vicious person can ever enter that land where my dwelling stands, now almost completed and almost ready for me to enter in and abide in peace eternally without fear of being ejected.
There is a valley of deep shadows between the place where I live in California and that to which I shall journey in a very short time. I cannot reach my home in that city of gold without passing through this dark valley of shadows. But I am not afraid, because the best Friend I ever had went through the same valley, long, long ago and drove away all its gloom. He has stuck by me through thick and thin since we first became acquainted fifty- five years ago, and I hold His promise in printed form never to forsake me nor to leave me alone. He will be with me as I walk through the valley of shadows, and I shall not lose my way when He is with me. "

I cannot wait.
