A Little Taste of Heaven

The children had been walking toward the Tree of Life as Trust was telling his story. It was before them now in all its splendour. Beneath its two trunks, flowed a crystal river. The river ran through what appeared to be a canal of transparent gold. It was the Main Street of the New Jerusalem. The River of Life flowed down the middle of the street. Joy bent down and dipped her hands in the cool refreshing waters. Beautiful gems forming intricate patterns were embedded in the sides of the canal. There were figures of grapes, vines, leaves and patterns of extraordinary beauty and colour. Everything was lustrous in appearance and had a polished look that reflected the glory coming from Jesus. The trunks of the Tree of Life were made of transparent gold mixed with silver.
