He is the God of Those Who Desire Heavenly Home ㅡ
“But now they desire a better country, that is, an heavenly: wherefore God is not ashamed to be called their God: for he hath prepared for them a city.”
(Hebrews 11:16)
The true Christian’s joys and consolation must and will be in heaven.
The longing souls of those who have tasted of the powers of the world to come and have feasted on heavenly joys, will not be satisfied with things of earth.
Their souls will be drawn out after God.
Where the treasure is, there will the heart be, holding sweet communion with the God they love and worship.
Their amusement will be in contemplating their treasure—the Holy City, the earth made new, their eternal home.
And while they dwell upon those things which are lofty, pure, and holy, heaven will be brought near, and they will feel the power of the Holy Spirit,
and this will tend to wean them more and more from the world and cause their consolation and chief joy to be in the things of heaven, their sweet home.
(Early Writings 112.2)
