Heaven is our future home. God has promised us a new body, a perfect environment, a mansion, rewards, and much more. However, the most glorious promise we have concerning heaven is to see Jesus face to face. When a Christian dies, they are immediately carried by the angels into God’s presence.

Fanny Crosby, who wrote many classic hymns, was born blind. Someone approached her and said that it was too bad that God had withheld her sight. Fanny answered, “My first request at birth would have been that God would remove my sight because when I get to heaven the first sight I will behold will be that of my Savior’s face.”
