Faith allows us to confidently walk with God into a future filled with joy; one that can become an extraordinary and amazing adventure.

I feel as though I am trying to describe a three-dimensional experience while living in a two-dimension world. The appropriate words, descriptions, and concepts don't even exist in our current language. I have subsequently read the accounts of other people's near-death experiences and their portrayals of heaven and I am able to see the same limitations in their descriptions and vocabulary that I see in my own.

Jesus conveyed the impression of complete love, compassion, kindness, and infinite patience.

Later in the day, a second verse became clear to my vision. It read: "Pray without ceasing."

The heaven I witnessed was so pure, love-filled, and magnificent that I did not want to return to earth.

By freely choosing to believe God's promises, a person's faith may be more strongly embraced and, therefore, less likely to falter in times of struggle, sadness, or other such difficulties.

Faith allows us to confidently walk with God into a future filled with joy; one that can become an extraordinary and amazing adventure.
