desires have settled in on heaven and the immediate presence of my Lord Jesus. And why not? The Bible says I’m already a citizen of heaven; I don’t need to update my passport or fill out any forms or change of address cards. The Bible says I’m already raised with Christ, seated with Him in heaven; I won’t have to “find my place” when I get there because my place has already been reserved. It’s “an inheritance that can never perish, spoil or fade—kept in heaven for [me].” Hooray for 1 Peter 1:4!
