“For I know that my Redeemer lives… And after my skin has been thus destroyed, yet in my flesh I shall see God, whom I shall see for myself, and my eyes shall behold, and not another.” -Book of Job 19:25-27

We will be with Him forever in paradise. Thank you, God, for this eternal gift through your Son Jesus.
