The Kingdom of Heaven is like the First Robin of Spring. After a long, cold, bitter winter, the Robin hops through your yard and announces the arrival of Spring. Its cheery song reminds you of better things to come. Its bright red-breast sends happy thoughts through the recesses of your mind to clear out the cobwebs of winter.
The long, cold winter is this life filled with its troubles and heartaches. The Robin is the Holy Spirit blowing its warm breeze across your cheek, and Spring is Heaven itself, always new, bright, refreshing.
He who has eyes to see, let him see.

Again, the Kingdom of Heaven is like a Family Christmas Celebration. It is warm and welcoming, light penetrates every dark corner. Good food abounds, gifts are given without reserve, and love can be felt in the air. It smells good, looks good, tastes good, sounds good, and feels good. IT IS GOOD. Welcome to the Kingdom.
