HEAVEN ON EARTH

“Let not your hearts be troubled…In my Father’s house are many rooms.”
John 14:1,2

Often when you stop yourself out of fear, it becomes your greatest block.  
Trust in God walk on into the unknown. 

With God's help heaven on earth is around the corner.

Many people would prefer known hells to unknown heavens. 

Let me tell you a true story. There was a man some years ago who was a
prisoner of war. It was decided to do a psychological study on him. So, he
was offered two options. The first option was that he could have a firing
squad. They took him into the room and showed him where the men stood with
the rifles and where he would stand against the wall. They told him about
the command and about the bullets that would destroy his body.

His second option was a closed door. They told him he could walk through
the door. He asked them what was through the door and the leader said,
“Unknown hells.” The man then chose the firing squad. He died. Through the
door was freedom.

It’s a true story. Not only is it true of the gentleman whose story is
told, it is true in our lives. So many times, we stay in a hellish
existence, a hellish habit, or a hellish frame of mind – because through
the door are unknown hells (or so we think). How much better it would be
if we could walk towards that door and say, “Okay God, I’m going in a new
direction and I’m frightened. But I’m going to walk with you, God. I know
that You are walking before me and I know You are going to bring
unbelievable good to me and my life. I’m going to walk with You and I’m
going to believe with a deep, deep faith.”

But you say that you’ve failed so many times before. Let me tell you, if
you don’t at first succeed, you’re running about average. It’s true.
Occasional failure is the price of improvement. If you were to start a
career of being a great painter, you would have several paintings that
would not be up to the quality that you would want. But that would lead
you to the direction of the masterpiece. Everything you have done leads
you to the masterpiece that is you. Thank God for your failures because
they will lead you in the direction of success.

The story of Abraham Lincoln is the same. He failed in business at 22
years of age. When he was 23, he ran for the legislature and was defeated.
When he was 24, he failed at business and went bankrupt. When he was 25,
he was elected to the legislature. When he was 26, his sweetheart died.
This so destroyed him that at 27 he had a nervous breakdown. When he was
29, he ran for Speaker and was defeated. When he was 31, he ran for
Elector and was defeated. When he was 34, he ran for Congress and was
defeated. When he was 37, he was elected to Congress. When he was 39, he
ran for re-election to Congress and was defeated. When he was 46, he ran
for the Senate and was defeated. When he was 47, he ran for Vice President
and was defeated. When he was 49, he ran for the Senate and was defeated.
And when he was 51, he was elected President of the United States.

It’s a good story, because no one would have blamed him if he had given up
at any one of those times. Of course, if he had, you would never have
heard his name. There are tens of millions of people whose names you’ve
never heard because they had given up TOO SOON.

A wonderful story is told of a man who had a dream. In it he had a
sledgehammer and every day he cracked it against a huge granite monument.
Finally, he gave up. He said, “I can’t do this anymore. I’m not making any
difference.” Then he heard a voice that said, “Hit it one more time.” With
the next blow, the rock cracked in half.

With God, we are given the strength and the power to go into the unknown,
and meet our God-given good. With God's help heaven on earth is around the corner.
