[At the end of time] the beatific vision, in which God opens himself in an inexhaustible way to the elect, will be the ever-flowing well-spring of happiness, peace, and mutual communion.Reflection: This is heaven: total access to God in mutual self-giving that is overflowing with happiness and peace. Not a series of ups and downs, but a sustained joy like we've never experienced before.
- CCC No. 1045
Prayer: Father, may all our earthly joys be pure and healthy and inspire us to strive more boldly for the promise of heaven.
