Do you have a loved one who has passed away? Have you ever wondered what heaven would be like?

Here are some heaven quotes from the saints that can inspire you today:

“Today I was in heaven, in spirit, and I saw its inconceivable beauties and the happiness that awaits us after death. I saw how all creatures give ceaseless praise and glory to God. I saw how great is happiness in God, which spreads to all creatures, making them happy…” – St. Faustina

“Earth hath no sorrow that heaven cannot heal.” – St. Thomas More

“The form under which the Heavenly Jerusalem is generally represented in my visions is that of a beautiful and well-regulated city, and the different degrees of glory to which the elect are raised are demonstrated by the magnificence of their palaces, or the wonderful fruit and flowers with which the gardens are embellished…” – Blessed Catherine Emmerich

“The Cherubim were placed at the gate of the earthly paradise with their flaming sword, to teach us that no one shall enter into the heavenly paradise who is not pierced through with the sword of love.” – St. Francis de Sales

“…there, everything is new; new beauties, new delights, new joys. There, all our desires shall be satisfied.”- St. Alphonsus

“In Paradise, death and the fear of death are no more: in that place of bliss, there are no sorrows, no infirmities, no poverty, no inconveniences, no vicissitudes of day or night, of cold or of heat. In that kingdom, there is continual day, always serene, a continual spring, always blooming.”- St. Alphonsus

“And I saw the other road, or rather, a path, for it was narrow and strewn with thorns and rocks; and the people who walked along it had tears in their eyes, and all kinds of suffering befell them. Some fell down upon the rocks, but stood up immediately and went on. At the end of the road there was a magnificent garden filled with all sorts of happiness and all these souls entered there. At the very first instant they forgot all their sufferings” – St. Faustina

“Life is passing. Eternity draws closer; soon we will live the very life of God. After having drunk deep at the fountain of bitterness, our thirst will be quenched at the very source of all sweetness.”- St. Therese of Lisieux

“In the Heavenly Jerusalem all is peace and eternal harmony, the beginning, fulfilment, and end of everything being pure and perfect happiness; the city is filled with splendid buildings, decorated in such a manner as to charm every eye and enrapture every sense; the inhabitants of this delightful abode are overflowing with rapture and exultation, the gardens gay with lovely flowers, and the trees covered with delicious fruits which give eternal life…” – Blessed Catherine Emmerich

“In Paradise there are no persecutions, no envy; for all love each other with tenderness, and each rejoices at the happiness of others, as if it were his own. There is no more fear of eternal perdition; for the soul confirmed in grace, can neither sin nor lose God.”- St. Alphonsus

“I am not sure exactly what heaven will be like, but I don’t know that when we die and it comes time for God to judge us, he will NOT ask, How many good things have you done in your life?, rather he will ask, How much LOVE did you put into what you did?” – Mother Teresa

“There, shines a light which no place can contain, there resound praises and song which are unlimited in duration. There are fragrances which the air does not blow away, savours that never fade, goods and sweet joys unaccompanied by any distaste or surfeit. There, God is Contemplated continuously, is known without any error of apprehension, and praised without weariness or diminution.” – St. Augustine

“Rouse yourselves, my sisters, and since some foretaste of heaven may be had on earth, beg our Lord to give us grace not to miss it through our own fault. Ask Him to show us where to find it—ask Him to give us strength of soul to dig until we find this hidden treasure, which lies buried within our hearts…” – St. Teresa of Avila

“And what can one say of the other blessings of heaven [besides living with God]? There will be health, and no sickness; liberty, and no servitude; beauty, and no ugliness; immortality, and no decay; abundance, and no want; repose, and no cares; security, and no dread; knowledge, and no error; satiety, and no feelings of revulsion; joy, and no sorrow; honor, and no contention.” – St. Peter of Alcantara

“But the delights of which we have spoken are the least of the blessings of Paradise. The glory of heaven consists in seeing and loving God face-to-face…Here below, God is hidden from our view; we can see him only with the eyes of faith: how great shall be our happiness when the veil shall be raised, and we shall be permitted to behold God face-to-face!”- St. Alphonsus
