The Works of God

From Joni Eareckson Tada, who has lived with her disability for more than four decades, on what she looks most forward to in heaven:

I can’t wait to be clothed in righteousness.  Without a trace of sin.  True, it will be wonderful to stand, stretch, and reach to the sky, but it will be more wonderful to offer praise that is pure.  I won’t be crippled by distractions.  Disabled by insincerity. I won’t be handicapped by a ho-hum halfheartedness.  My heart will join with yours and bubble over with effervescent adoration.  We will finally be able to fellowship fully with the Father and the Son.

For me, this will be the best part of heaven.

Joni Eareckson Tada, Heaven: Your Real Home, p. 41.
