                    I like the way one person summarized our hope of heaven.  
There we will be:
Worship without Distraction
Serve without Exhaustion
Fellowship without Fear
Learn without Fatigue
Rest without Boredom.

                    As a large crowd of Iboga Christians of Western Tanzania gathered to worship one Easter Sunday, a crazed mother lion was stalking their village. The crowd froze in fear.
