Paradise - only those who have a childlike face are accepted
Many people carry within themselves so many negative elements which paralyze them that even when they do their best to present an open, welcoming face, they are unable to! Their facial muscles refuse to cooperate, to bring life to their expression, everything remains wooden, and if they try to smile, all you get is a grimace. This shows that they have spent their whole life stagnating in the lower regions of the will, the heart and the intellect, without ever being visited by an element of the soul or the spirit. The Gospels tell us that only children will enter the Kingdom of God. Why? Because children laugh and smile and are lively. So be mindful of your expression! If you arrive before the gates of Paradise with a stony face, you will be told, ‘Sorry, you can’t come in with an expression like that. Here we only accept childlike faces.’ Yes, indeed, there are beings by the gates up above who inspect your expression and if you have a forbidding look on your face, they will say: ‘Shoo, off you go! We don’t want you here.’ You don’t believe it? Well, go and see for yourselves!
