    Found it!:
    “Heaven without God would be like a honeymoon without a groom or a palace without a king. Teresa of Avila said, “Wherever God is, there is heaven.” The corollary: Wherever God is not, there is hell.”
    Check this out, Teresa’s summary bio:
    https://www.britannica.com/biography/Saint-Teresa-of-Avila
    Teresa is one of my “favorite” female messengers of all time (haha). Another quote:
    She wrote in one of her books: “In the case of the most suffering soul that has ever lived: From the perspective of heaven, I am convinced it is akin to a single night in a bad hotel.”
    And my note: I took particular notice when I read that given her life story: Soon after entering a convent as a young teenager, she was stricken with a terrible fatal disease. They didn’t have pain medication in the 16th century. So, she wrote that she prayed during the worst pain: “Lord, if this is how you treat your friends, is it a wonder that you have so few of them !?!” So reflection: This lady actually survived, very likely a miracle. So, what happened to her from the time of her first quote to this late in life quote. I submit: God’s grace, an amazing sanctification process through her in-dwelling Holy Spirit.
    Soli Deo Gloria!
