Land Of Eternal SpringPosted : 11 May, 2011 03:59 PMThe former president of Columbia Bible College in South Carolina (J.R.McQuilkin) pointed out that God has a wise purpose in letting us grow old. ~~~~~~~~~~~~ I think God has planned the strength and beauty of youth to be physical; but the strength and beauty of age is spiritual. We gradually lose the beauty that is temporary; and become truly home-sick for our eternal home. If we stayed young and beautiful, we might never want to leave. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Here's the advice I give myself: Be grateful that, as the apostle wrote in 1Timothy 6:17, "God gives us richly all things to enjoy" in life's summer and autumn. At the onset of life's winter we can anticipate that we'll soon be living in the land of eternal spring. I've been thinking about heaven a lot lately. I truly have a strong yearning to be present with the Lord, and absent from this body. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ If you want to, share some scriptures about heaven........ |
