Joni

Joni Eareckson Tada wrote this as a commendation for Randy Alcorn's book 'Heaven':

'One thing's for sure: 'Earth can't keep its promises, but aren't you glad Heaven does? And oh the joy of one day enjoying not only glorified bodies but hearts free of sin.'

What struck me about this is that despite her extensive disabilities Joni still focusses 
on the life to come as a release from sin.


For me, Joni is one of the most significant Christians of the last fifty years and will continue to be so until the New Heaven and  the New Earth.
