On the other side — eternity — are various settings.<\/span><\/p>\n There are abodes in a rustic countryside, near inconceivable\u00a0waterfalls, in grand, towering, expansive \u201cforests,\u201d next to\u00a0pastures of pure luminous verdure. There are hamlets.<\/span><\/p>\n There are cottages.<\/span><\/p>\n There are hovels.<\/span><\/p>\n There are mansions (many of these: John<\/em> 14:2). There are villages\u00a0and towns and cities of light and \u201ccities\u201d within those cities.\u00a0I read an account of a Chinese woman who had passed on\u00a0after a long illness and walked with Jesus to gates of pearl\u00a0which were opened by angels past which she saw\u00a0gorgeously colored houses and golden streets.<\/span><\/p>\n When\u00a0Rebecca Springer had her extensive near-death experience\u00a0(which was back in the 1800s), she visited the home that her\u00a0brother had helped construct for her.<\/span><\/p>\n When she asked about small homes, he replied, \u201cThat\u00a0was all the material (good works) they sent up.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n To repeat:<\/span> Your mission is your mansion.<\/span><\/p>\n Your true purpose brings you closer to God.<\/span><\/p>\n Use what you are given to give to others (and your gifts\u00a0will grow).<\/span><\/p>\n The more you give, the more of God\u2019s Grace will flow\u00a0through you\u2014healing here on earth; registering in Heaven.<\/span><\/p>\n Death is no more traumatic,<\/span> to those prepared, than\u00a0leaving one room and entering another.<\/span><\/p>\n \u201cLet me tell you, my dear friends, there is always an\u00a0angel with you as you leave this world,\u201d said Gladys.<\/span><\/p>\n \u201cIf you\u00a0love everyone as yourself, the heavens will open up and\u00a0receive you. But be aware. If you are evil with evil thoughts,\u00a0you will never see the light or the cleansing white cloud that\u00a0washes away the old earth and makes you pure, to be able to\u00a0see the Lord.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n A pure heart is a portal to God.<\/span><\/p>\n It holds nothing back.<\/span><\/p>\n It bears no secrets.<\/span><\/p>\n Look at negative trends that keep repeating in your life\u00a0and tackle them.<\/span><\/p>\n Life is With discipline,<\/span> every thought that was critical can be\u00a0turned into a kind one.<\/span><\/p>\n (As soon as a person enters your thoughts, pray for him.\u00a0In this way there will not be a negative perspective.)<\/span><\/p>\n The virtues are always with us. So is perseverance.<\/span><\/p>\n Remember that a seer from Kibeho, Rwanda, once called purgatory the\u00a0\u201cplace of those who persevere.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n \u201cThe Lord will give people situations, like cancer,\u201d adds\u00a0a woman named Lisa Tesch. \u201cThey\u2019re scared. They\u2019re so\u00a0frightened. They have no idea what they\u2019re going to run into<\/span> Death dissolves like a vapor.<\/span><\/p>\n If we fail to use our faith and help others we are like the\u00a0Pharisees who castigated Jesus for violating the \u201claw\u201d of the\u00a0Sabbath by healing the blind man.\u00a0Who was without sight: the blind man or the Pharisees?<\/span><\/p>\n There is \u201cover-scrupulosity.\u201d\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n We can\u2019t see the forest for the trees.<\/span><\/p>\n We are \u201cpenny wise and pound foolish.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n We lose sight of the \u201cbig picture.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n God is merciful\u2014hugely. We must never forget this! You cannot imagine His\u00a0 kindness.\u00a0Extremes distort our emotions.<\/span><\/p>\n –MHB<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n [resources:\u00a0What You Take To Heaven<\/a><\/span>\u00a0and retreat Cincinnati<\/a><\/span>]<\/em><\/p>\n On the other side — eternity — are various settings.

\nor what to expect to happen. All I can say is, \u2018Rejoice!\u2019 When\u00a0you are embraced in the Arms of the Father Almighty, there\u00a0is no greater Presence. And it\u2019s total, holy, pure love. He\u00a0totally embraces you and you become one in Him.
