true

i think some of the early respondants were getting confused with "scary" vs. "worried"

Hello! The only part of eternity that is scary to me is if I have to spend it without being in the presence of God. :peace:

Not really.



I think I used to feel that way about such things;

but since I've accepted how much I don't know...

and how powerless a human being actually is...



Such things don't remotely concern me.



"For now we see through a glass darkly... but then face to face. Now I know in part; but then shall I know even as also I am known."



Unrelated (to your post) thought:

It's interesting to me that the verse about distorted perceptions of reality is at the end of the "love chapter."

It all makes perfect sense if you follow the theory that lack of love comes down to misunderstandings; or perhaps more accurately: forgetting just how fallible our perceptions are.
