Heaven my resting place.

Just have a tip of the ice berg; how heaven looks like because I believe by God’s grace, we will all meet there for the marriage feast of the bride (us) and the Lamb.  Heaven is not a ghostlike, foggy atmosphere where disembodied spirits float around. Heaven is as real as this earth. Jesus told His disciples; ‘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. ‘John chapter 14 verse 2.’ Paul the apostle told Christians they will not all perish but have new imperishable bodies ‘1st Corinthians chapter 15 verses 51-58.’ Again, contrary to many ideas, Heaven is not dull. The things that are kill joys on earth; selfishness, hatred, death; all will be gone. Heaven will not be a place where we sit around with nothing to do; the Bible describes Heaven to be a place for dynamic, creative and untiring activity in the presence of God Almighty without toil and fatigue. It is also a place of intellectual stimulation ‘here we see through a glass darkly’ but face to face we shall see and behold the face of God. 
Jesus said I am the way (external), the truth (internal) and the life (eternal); no man comes to the Father but by me. ‘John chapter 14 verse 6’. He that hears my word and believe on Him that sent me, have everlasting life and shall not come into condemnation; but is passed from death into life; ‘John chapter 5 verse 24, emphasis added.’ What are you still waiting for? Jesus is at the door of your heart knocking, open your heart and let Him come in and sup with you and you with Him; ‘Revelation chapter 3 verse 20, emphasis added.’ By doing this, there is always a joy in Heaven when one sinner repents of his sins and follows Jesus, he or she always wipes away the tears from the cheek of the Lamb of God, putting smiles on the faces of the saints that have gone before us. Also the hosts of angels rejoice over your salvation and they sing aloud a joyful song, all because a lost sheep has returned to His fold, to the Shepherd and Bishop of your soul ‘Jesus Christ’
