> radio. During that week he received a letter from an elderly gentleman who
> was very ill.

>  Here is part of that letter: "Next Sunday you are to talk about
> 'Heaven.' I am interested in that land because I have held a clear title 
> to
> a bit of property there for over 55 years. I did not buy it. It was given
> to me without money and without price. But the donor purchased it for me 
> at
> a tremendous sacrifice.
>
>  I am not holding it for speculation since the title is nontransferable.
> It is not a vacant lot. For more than a half-century I have been sending
> material out of which the greatest architect and builder of the universe
> has been building a home for me, which will never need to be repaired
> because it will suit me perfectly, individually, and will never grow old.
>
>  Termites can never undermine its foundation for it rests upon the Rock
> of Ages. Fire cannot destroy it. Floods cannot wash it away. No locks or
> bolts will ever be placed upon its doors, for no vicious person can ever
> enter that land where my dwelling stands, now almost completed and ready
> for me to enter it and abide in peace eternally without fear of being
> ejected.
>
>  There is a valley of deep shadow between the place where I live in
> California and that to which I shall journey in a very short time. I 
> cannot

> of
> shadows. But I am not afraid, because the best friend that I have ever had
> went through the same valley alone, a long, long, time ago and drove away
> all the gloom. He has stuck by me through thick and thin since we first 
> met
> and became acquainted 55 years ago, and I hold His promise in printed 
> form,
> never to forsake nor to leave me alone. He will be with me as I walk
> through the valley of shadows, and I shall not lose my way when He is with
> me.
>
>  I hope to hear your sermon on "Heaven" next Sunday from my home, but I
> have no assurance that I shall be able to do so. My ticket to heaven has 
> no
> date marked for the journey... No return coupon... And no permit for
> baggage.  Yes, I am ready to go and may not be here while you are talking
> next Sunday, but I shall meet you there some day."
