We Shall Be Joyful to See His Countenance, December 17

Thou hast made known to Me the ways of life; Thou shalt make Me full of joy with Thy countenance. Acts 2:28.RRe 353.1

Heaven, ... witness the high, the holy state of perfection that ever abides there—every soul filled with love; every countenance beaming with joy; enchanting music in melodious strains rising in honor of God and the Lamb; and ceaseless streams of light flowing upon the saints from the face of Him who sitteth upon the throne, and from the Lamb; ... realize that there is higher and greater joy yet to experience, for the more they receive of the enjoyment of God, the more is their capacity increased to rise higher in eternal enjoyment, and thus continue to receive new and greater supplies from the ceaseless sources of glory and bliss inexpressible.—Testimonies for the Church 2:226, 227.RRe 353.2

Heaven is a good place. I long to be there, and behold my lovely Jesus.—Early Writings, 39.RRe 353.3
