As though it had never been!

Child of God, soon, oh, how soon! all that now loads your heart with care, and wrings it with sorrow; all that dims your eye with tears, and renders the day anxious and the night sleepless--will be as though it had never been!

Emerging from . . .
  the entanglement,
  the dreariness,
  the solitude,
  the loneliness and
  the temptations
of the wilderness, you shall enter upon your everlasting rest--your unfading inheritance, where there is . . .
  no sorrow,
  no declension,
  no sin,
  no sunset,
  no twilight,
  no evening shadows,
  no midnight darkness—
but all is one perfect, cloudless, eternal day; for Jesus is the joy, the light, and the glory thereof.

"They will enter Zion with singing; everlasting joy will crown their heads.Gladness and joy will overtake them, and sorrow and sighing will flee away!" Isaiah 51:11

"For the Lamb at the center of the throne will be their Shepherd; He will lead them to springs of living water. And God will wipe away every tear from their eyes!" Revelation 7:17
