“…, Verily I say unto you, Except ye be converted, and become as little children, ye shall not enter into the kingdom of heaven.” – Matthew 18:3
Heaven! A place imagined to be so sweet from written accounts, many can’t afford to wait but reinvent theirs here on earth.
Little wonder we are quick to attach that word to pleasurable experiences or aesthetic locations for want of the delights therein.
Much as we strive towards creating a replica here on earth, there can only be one true heaven, also referred to as paradise.
This one, you cannot buy your way into; neither can physical combat get you there.
Electoral polls are also meaningless in this realm where all humans are candidates aspiring for the life vote of one Elector only.
Your only guarantee to securing a spot in the real heaven via the referendum of this sole Voter Who doubles as the LORD of hosts is by dancing to His tune.
The lyrics, as captured in today’s scripture, are not unfamiliar.
Abandon your impure ways and embrace the path of purity like a child, and then you stand a chance to be elected into paradise.
This matter is non-negotiable.
Stay blessed.
