This is the day the Lord has made; We will rejoice and be glad in it.

How beautiful on the mountains are the feet of those who bring good news, who proclaim peace, who bring good tidings, who proclaim salvation,…

…and I will dwell in the house of the Lord forever.

4. We get to go home with the Shepherd.

Psalm 23:6

Surely your goodness and mercy will follow me all the days of my life, and I will dwell in the house of the Lord forever.

John 11:25-26

25 “I am the resurrection and the life. He who believes in me will live, even though he dies; 26 and whoever lives and believes in me will never die. Do you believe this?”

Psalm 23:1-6

1 The Lord is my Shepherd, I shall not be in want. 2 He makes me lie down in green pastures, He leads me beside quiet waters, 3 He restores my soul. He guides me in 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 overflows. 6 Surely your goodness and mercy will follow me all the days of my life, and I will dwell in the house of the Lord forever.
