"The joys of heaven are for most of us, in our present condition, an acquired taste" CS Lewis

“If you then be risen with Christ, seek those things which are above, where Christ sits on the right hand of God.” Col.3
If we have to acquire a taste for things which are good for us in the here and now, it should come as no surprise to us that the joys of Heaven are an acquired taste. I believe Heaven is a real place but I also believe it is a state of mind--an attitude. If we are not made into different people, people who possess this attitude, then it will not matter how beautiful Heaven is; we will not be happy there without it. We must be different, not just moved to a different place. What is this attitude? It is expressed in these simple words: “I delight to do your will O God.” Conversations Within ts 11/25/2012 (Camp Farrington, FL)
