The
best is yet to come. Max Lucado; “No one
cries when a plane lands safely and starts to embark. We never see anyone
clinging to the chair cry because they have to get off the plane and arrive at
their destination.“ As we read this text is causes me to
wonder, why we cry and cling to the suffering of riding on the airplane when
the destination is the goal.
I’ve heard talk on TV about people who are in their 70s as being
the new 50! I also read a few weeks ago, that 100 is the new 60! I THINK THAT’S
HIGHLY DEBATABLE! It depends on your health, obviously…and how you live your
life getting to that age.
C. S. Lewis says: “God whispers to us in our pleasures, speaks in
our conscience, but shouts in our pains: SUFFERING is His megaphone to rouse a
deaf world.” What's the idea? God gets our attention very well when we're in
pain or are experience troubles and suffering in this life. When things are
going well, we don't pay much attention to Him.
Our suffering is a reminder that we will be made new again when … We
recognize that suffering is a part of this world … We cherish our hope of
something better … We receive help for our weaknesses
You know I love ya, Don
