We may be surprised at the people we find in heaven. God has a soft spot for sinners. His standards are quite low.
Desmond TutuGod says "I have given you this gift, and it is a real gift. I want you to love me freely, and I will do anything, anything up to giving up the most precious thing I could say I have, my son, to prove I love you. Please come back."
Desmond Tutu
