It was Sir Walter Scott who asked, "Is death the last sleep? No, it is the final awakening.

The Bible takes the word home with all of its tender associations and sacred memories, and applies it to the hereafter and tells us that heaven is home.

One final reason for choosing God's path is of supreme importance: It leads us home.

Life has its share of joys and laughter—but we also know life's road is often very rough. Temptations assail us; people disappoint us; illness and age weaken us; tragedies and sorrows ambush us; evil and injustice overpower us. Life is hard—but God is good, and heaven is real!

Grief comes with many losses. Whatever its cause, grief will come to all of us.

Death is not a trip, but a destination.

Someone has said that death is not a period, but a comma in the story of life.

They, then, who are destined to die, need not be careful to inquire what death they are to die, but into what place death will usher them.

For if the soul, once delivered, as it never was before, is never to return to misery, then there happens in its experience something which never happened before; and this, indeed, something of the greatest consequence, to wit, the secure entrance into eternal felicity.

In light of heaven, the worst suffering on earth, a life full of the most atrocious tortures on earth, will be seen to be no more serious than one night in an inconvenient hotel.

Do you know why I love God? Because Heaven is real. And one day, when we get to Heaven, we are going to have arms and legs. And we are going to run, and we are going play, and we are going to race.

Think of working forever at something you love to do, for one you love with all your heart, and never getting tired! We will never know weariness in heaven.
