Very Philosophical. And I think that I agree...Mmmm. Very Philosophical. And I think that I agree with you. It seems that we spend a lot of our time talking about "when things are better," as if we're referring to some other world, but I've noticed recently that the scriptures NEVER talk about things in a futuristic sense. They do tell us to prepare for the future but it's in a now sort of a way. Like, life up your hearts and rejoice (NOW) do not fear (even though you're afraid right NOW) Be kind (NOW) etc. etc. And funny, but it doesn't say anything about how easy this will be as soon as we reach Neverland. Basically, I think that God is trying to tell us, like you're saying, that if we look around, there's a whole lot of super green grass. Except, this is a little bit qualified because of some other stuff. Let's just talk...later. And soon, okay?Kristen Blairhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04569327767074688819noreply@blogger.com
