A song we sang tonight (okay, it was actually now a couple weeks ago) at devotional made some thoughts pass through my head and now I wish to share them. What if “eternity” hasn’t begun yet, that the scene of heaven shared in Revelation is not yet occurring. I guess I am of [...]

Kindred Spirits, those alike and those who complete…a poem, of sorts
June 24, 2008
