It is pleasant in a journey to have a prospect of the journey's end - to see that the way we are in leads directly to it, and to see that it cannot be far off; every step we take is so much nearer it, nay, and we are within a few steps of it we have a prospect of being shortly with Christ in Paradise; yet a little while, and we shall be at home, we shall be at rest, and whatever difficulties we may meet with in our way, when we come to heaven all will be well - eternally well.
Taken from the book The Pleasantness of a Religious Life by Matthew Henry 1714
