Heaven! 
(from Octavius Winslow's "Solitude Sweetened") 
'Companionship of God' is the highest, 
purest, sweetest mercy a saint of God 
can have on earth! 

Yes, it is the highest, purest, sweetest bliss 
the saints of God can have in Heaven! What is 
the enjoyment of Heaven? Not merely exemption 
from trial, and freedom from sorrow, and rest 
from toil, and release from conflict. O no! it is 
the presence; the full, unclouded presence of 
our Father there! 

To be with Christ; 
to behold his glory; 
to gaze upon his face; 
to hear his voice; 
to feel the throbbings of his bosom; 
to bask in the effulgence of God's presence; 
O this is Heaven, the Heaven of Heaven!
