It's easy for us to imagine living in places like those where we spend most of our time on Earth... Or would like to be. It's harder for many of us to imagine an abstract sense of "being one with God" as feeling better than these familiar bricks-and-mortar examples of things from Earth.

Imagine being told you've just won this house in a lottery, for example. How would that feel?

Yet the gift that Jesus has given us is far more valuable, and will lead us to far more amazing feelings of happiness, than any lottery winnings on Earth ever could.
