My Change of Address:

Please be advised that I have moved. I received the other day from God letting me know that my new home was completed. I knew my mansion needed some finishing touches and that Jesus Christ had to inspect it and give the final approval. On that day He let me know my mansion was ready and I could move in. He told me to go ahead and change my address. Well, my new home is glorious and with a sight to behold. It is located on an exclusive estate, being beautiful yearly gate of course. You know the streets are paved with gold and every day is Sunday just like you have been told. Trees grace my garden here and then walk and talk with God without worry or care. there is peace here, joy, happiness and no pain or headache, no strife or discomfort, only sweet serenity. My heavenly Father is here in all His glory; and oh yes, I have my own designer who has fitted me with my very own white robe and wings, I could just go on but instead, I'll pray that you move here one day.
