“It is through the Spirit that Christ dwells in us; and the Spirit of God, received into the heart by faith, is the beginning of the life eternal.”  {E.G. White, DA 388.1}  In this life we will experience sickness, disease and death but through an abiding relationship with Christ we can have the very best Heaven has to offer, joy, peace and love.  “Rest yourself wholly in the hands of Jesus. Contemplate His great love, and while you meditate upon His self-denial, His infinite sacrifice made in our behalf in order that we should believe in Him, your heart will be filled with holy joy, calm peace, and indescribable love….We may enjoy rich feasts of love, and as we fully believe that we are His by adoption, we may have a foretaste of heaven.”  {E.G White, Hvn 175.3} This is Emmanuel-God with us.
