How Far Is It To Heaven

Does anyone truly know how far it is to travel to heaven? Have you ever counted the steps to get there? I have traveled there many times in my sleep I am a regular guest in the throne room Here is what I can tell you regarding the answer to this question Heaven is a hop skip and a jump away from right where you are It is a pebble’s throw across the river bank It is a spit across the crick if you are a southerner And it is a song’s prelude if you are a conductor Heaven is merely a thought away If you are walking in the Spirit you are already there You close your eyes and you can see things you never could have imagined There is a curtain in the spiritual realm All you have to do is believe and with your prayers take your hand and push it aside Then you can see The key is believing Have faith that you are there and BAM you are there! Heaven is not an eternity away as many great authors have concluded Heaven is in the palm of your hand It is like a soft kiss on a most distressing day It is the cherry on top of a warm ice cream Sundae Heaven is almost everything you can imagine and even more than that when you stretch your imagination Heaven is truly a heartbeat away!
