Rest in Heaven
Hebrews 4:9
There remains therefore a rest to the people of God.


Once I dreamed of being transported to heaven; and being surprised to find myself so calm and tranquil in the midst of my happiness, I inquired the cause. The reply was, "When you were on earth, you resembled a bottle but partly filled with water, which was agitated by the least motion, — now you are like the same bottle filled to the brim, which cannot be disturbed.

(E. Payson, D. D.)
