Have you ever wondered what it might mean to live with Christ for "Eternity"...for me usually its the concept of eternity that is hard to wrap my head around.
Here are some of my thoughts in that regard:
Eternity is:
-when every day feels like the perfect day
-no fears for tomorrow
-no regrets from yesterday
-time is irrelevant and we won't care
But...what about the aspect of eternity that is the right now?
We are living with Jesus right now, and right now is a part of the eternity that we are promised with Him. My previous thoughts don't really seem to relate to a CURRENT eternity do they?
On the other hand maybe they should, maybe we should be feeling that way even now, remembering that God is the focus and reason for living and doing EVERYTHING. After all we are to rely on Him even in tough times and in a perfect relationship with Christ the day would still be perfect...things to think about.

Not really sure...
I just kinda felt like writing but I wasn't sure what to write about. I do know that I'm tired, a little overworked and stretched in way too many directions. I'm looking forward to moving because it will clear up a bunch of those issues. I won't have to deal with the strata any more (I'm the president), we won't have to worry about packing and moving, I won't have to worry about finishing the basement bathroom because it will be done before we go, and I just sort of feel like we'll have a chance to settle down into our new place. Plus there is a hot tub at the new place which is really good and I'm REALLY looking forward to using it ALL the TIME.
Anyway, pray that we make it through the next few weeks in one piece.
I'll leave you with this question, How and where do you draw the line for individuals you know claim to believe and live for Jesus and yet refuse to live the way that they know they should?
I know, there are a lot of factors involved but its worth thinking about either way. What about when those decisions may affect your kids? Do we extend love never ending? And how do you profess love over all to individuals like that and to your kids when they can only think in black and white terms for their age.
