We see a hearse; we think sorrow. We see a grave; we think despair. We hear of a death; we think of a loss. Not so in heaven. When heaven sees a breathless body, it sees the vacated cocoon & the liberated butterfly.

Don't worry about having the right words; worry more about having the right heart. It's not eloquence he seeks, just honesty.

One phrase summarizes the horror of hell. "God isn't there."

We may speak about a place where there are no tears, no death, no fear, no night; but those are just the benefits of heaven. The beauty of heaven is seeing God.

Faith is not the belief that God will do what you want. It is the belief that God will do what is right.

What causes us to think of prayer as the last option rather than the first? I can think of two reasons: feelings of independence and feelings of insignificance.

If God is enough for you, then you'll always have enough, because you'll always have God.
