"For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him will not perish but have eternal life." - John 3:16 To accept him, you must open your heart. Accepting him as you Lord and Savior means you also accept his gift of heaven. Plus, God will also be with you every day, giving you light in your life and your heart. God will also give you joy. However, these moments will feel tame compared to the light of heaven. Accept God as your gift and thank him for making himself a gift, not as a reward, but something you can just accept.
