Heaven Will Manifest

                        Nature dictates that nothing lasts forever,
             and yet Nature's rules don't apply to the soul.
When you die, all physical bonds splinter and sever,
yet your spiritual self remains whole.
                        Your concept of heaven will manifest,
and you’ll feel loved and blessed,
fulfilling all that the scriptures suggest.
      Your soul will behold a merciful, forgiving God,
            and you will know He isn't merely a fraud,
                        as He judges whether your soul's pure or flawed.
There's no way of knowing, none whatsoever,
            but if you’re repentant, don't dread paying Death's toll.
      God already loves you; it doesn't matter if you are stupid or clever—
            in the presence of God, your soul will be awed.
