Growing with Galatians (June13, 2013

Your daily devotion from my Growing with Galatians series...

[God] To whom be the glory forever and ever. Amen.(Galatians 1:5, ESV)

Yesterday, we looked at Christianity and life today. Today, we see that our faith is also about forevermore. Paul writes “...no eye has seen, nor ear heard, nor the heart of man imagined, what God has prepared for those who love him” (1 Corinthians 2:9, ESV). Whatever forevermore is it is greater than we can imagine. One of the best imaginings of heaven is C. S. Lewis’ book, “The Last Battle.” The vision of heaven is wonderful, beyond wonderful. However wonderful Lewis’ imaginings are, they are not wonderful enough. If you encounter any unpleasantness today, remember what awaits you in heaven.  Forevermore is greater than anything that can be conceived. Smell the roses! Look at something beautiful today: a sunrise, a flower, a baby. Remember that however beautiful these may be, forevermore will be more beautiful.

Everyday Expect Eternity!
