be with him. if i am victorious then i will be in paradise. i will eat the most delicious ripe and juicy fruit from the tree of life. one day i will be on holiday forever and enjoy eternal rest! it's something we should look forward to. it can be the goal that drives us on when we are weary with well doing. it can be the joy we set before us when we battle with temptation. we work hard so that one day we can be at rest.
