A place of safety, rest and security; a pleasant place where one can find contentment. And its not just for cats...
Psalm 23 (WEB)
1 Yahweh is my shepherd:
I shall lack nothing.
2 He makes me lie down in green pastures.
He leads me beside still waters. (emp. added vss. 1&2)
3 He restores my soul.
He guides me in the paths of righteousness for his name’s sake.
4 Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death,
I will fear no evil, for you are with me.
Your rod and your staff, they comfort me.
5 You prepare a table before me
in the presence of my enemies.
You anoint my head with oil. My cup runs over.
6 Surely goodness and loving kindness shall follow me all the days of my life, and I will dwell in Yahweh’s house forever. (emp. added vs. 6)

These things and more await those who
follow the God of all the universe! Over my lifetime, I have thought
about heaven countless times, but until now I never realized that there
will probably be soft, green grass to sit on.
Just saying....
