“A man dies and goes to heaven. He is being shown around by an angel. Everything is just so sweet and gentle, the total golden tender presence of God everywhere, a pond over there, a beautiful field there, and some hills for people who like to hike, and this expansiveness in every direction of sky and light and physical beauty. And there is this section separated from the rest; it has beautiful high walls. The man who's just come to heaven says, "What's over there?" The angel says, "That's for the fundamentalists. They don't consider it heaven if anyone else got in.” PeopleIfsMenLightBeautifulDiesHeavenSkyFieldsHe ManSweetWallAngelGoldenHillsGentleSectionsPondsPresence Of GodPhysical BeautyExpansiveness Author:Anne Lamott
“The windflower and the violet, they perished long ago, And the brier-rose and the orchis died amid the summer glow; But on the hills the golden-rod, and the aster in the wood, And the yellow sunflower by the brook, in autumn beauty stood, Till fell the first from the clear cold heaven, as falls the plague on men, And the brightness of their smile was gone, from upland glade and glen.” MenFirstsLongFallHeavenGoneClearColdSummerDiedRoseWoodsGoldenHillsAutumnYellowLong AgoVioletPlagueBrooksBrightnessSunflowerAsters Author:William C.

“The foundation of the Christian's peace is everlasting; it is what no time, no change can destroy. It will remain when the body dies; it will remain when the mountains depart and the hills shall be removed, and when the heavens shall be rolled together as a scroll. The fountain of His comfort shall never be diminished, and the stream shall never be dried. His comfort and joy is a living spring in the soul, a well of water springing up to everlasting life.” WellsSoulBodyChristianTogetherJoyDiesHeavenPeaceWaterComfortMountainSpringFoundationHillsStreamsFountainEverlastingEverlasting LifeComfort And Joy Book:The Works of Jonathan Edwards: Volume II - I Source: The Works of Jonathan Edwards: Volume II - I
