Life on earth is basically what you make it. It's not always easy, but when you have Christ dwelling within you, you are able to handle all the problems of life and still enjoy it. That's why Christ died, so that we could enjoy our earthly life, enabled by guiding of the Holy Spirit, that allows the fruit of the Spirit to flourish in us. Heaven begins right down here on earth. Let's remember that and live as such. Much LOVE!
