All This and Heaven Too


"Thou shalt guide me with thy counsel, and afterward receive me into glory."  (Psalm 73:24)

For the child of God, heaven and all its glory is a promised future reality. We think often of our friends and loved ones already there in that marvelous place, that land where there are no tears, no death, neither sorrow, nor crying and no more pain. (Revelation 21:4)  It is a place of rare beauty whose chief resident is Jesus, our Savior, the Lamb of God.

But, until we step over into that wonderful land, we have the Lord's presence to guide us and counsel us.   He goes with us through the valley of the shadow of death.

If you are one of His you can depend on Him to correctly counsel you by His Word and by His Spirit while you are down here and afterward receive you to that home He has gone to prepare.

"Blessed assurance, Jesus is mine; Oh, what a foretaste of glory divine."
