Anytime I think life is getting annoying I put on my 100 year glasses to gain perspective. What will matter 100 years from now?
- Will the out of date design of my couch matter to anyone? “So glad we have hover couches now!”
- Will the high gas prices of today gain any sympathy? “Aww, gas used to be only $4.05 a gallon, how quaint!”
- Will the fact that my nose gets stuffy while I sleep concern anyone? “I think my great-great Grandma’s name was Jenn…er was that Janna? Oh yea, Jess, that’s right.”
God knows me. He hears my heart. He comforts me. He asks that I wear eternal glasses which see far beyond today into forever. Each day matters. Every moment counts. I take time to remember my past but I don’t linger there too long. I reach ahead for the future; building God’s kingdom here.
Love,
Jess
