Our longing for things to be better is evidence of our desire for heaven. We each have a hole in our heart that can only be satisfied by His presence. As we search for His kingdom and His righteousness, we catch a glimpse of what is to come. Waiting is difficult as we experience the turmoil of our world, as we see first hand the effects of sin. His presence and His love are the antidote to the loneliness we feel in our noisy world.
“The best of life on Earth is a glimpse of Heaven; the worst of life is a glimpse of Hell. For Christians, this present life is the closest they will come to Hell. For unbelievers, it is the closest they will come to Heaven.” - Randy Alcorn, Heaven: A Comprehensive Guide to Everything the Bible Says About Our Eternal Home
