I used to live as though a massive, thick, rarely penetrable, concrete wall was dividing this life from the next, and my daily thoughts gave little consideration to what was on the other side.  I see now that it is a thin, delicate, almost transparent veil separating us from eternity, which can be unexpectedly torn at any moment. 

Since Judson’s death, I find myself straining to peer through this veil; I want to gain a glimpse of heaven and my Father, see Jud whole and free of suffering, and keep my sights on our reunion.  Consequently, I am being challenged to live my days as if I were looking at my life from the other side.  Such a change of perspective reshapes everything.

This life only holds true significance in light of eternity-I want to live accordingly!
