Glimmers of heaven

"Joy is the serious business of heaven."
                                          - C. S. Lewis
More often than we realize, by God's grace, we experience glimmers of heaven. Even unbelievers, through God's common grace, experience heavenly moments. Whether it is a sense of awe and wonder at sunset, a burst of true joy in the heart, or loving relationships, they are all gifts from God that put His goodness and glory on display. Be on the lookout for those moments, and don't take them for granted.


Here is one of those moments. Imagine one day you're shopping at the mall, and suddenly everyone begins to sing Handel's Hallelujah Chorus. That's what happened at one particular Macy's on October 30th.
