Mind, Character, and Personality Volume 2
we are in the heaven of bliss, the more and still more of glory will be
opened to us; and the more we know of God, the more intense will be
our happiness. As we walk with Jesus in this life, we may be filled
with His love, satisfied with His presence.
All that human nature can bear, we may receive here. But what is
this compared with the hereafter? There “are they before the throne of
God, and serve Him day and night in His temple: and He that sitteth on
the throne shall dwell among them. They shall hunger no more, neither
thirst any more; neither shall the sun light on them, nor any heat. For
the Lamb which is in the midst of the throne shall feed them, and shall
lead them unto living fountains of waters: and God shall wipe away
all tears from their eyes” (
Revelation 7:15-17
