Eyes on Eternity: Perspective, Part 1

"There are far better things ahead than any we leave behind." - C.S. Lewis

C.S. Lewis always seemed to have a good word of wisdom, and this is probably one of my favorite quotes from him.
I was constantly reminded when I was in India, how we're not meant for here, we're meant for our father's heavenly kingdom for eternity. India gave me a new perspective on things that I am constantly thinking about every day. Today, I came across Pastor Mike's (From the church I go to here in Gainesville, First Assembly) blog post on this same topic, that everyone should definitely check out.
It's good Monday morning encouragement.
Poor Shamu

"He has made everything beautiful in its time. He has also set eternity in the hearts of men; yet they cannot fathom what God has done from beginning to end." Ecclesiastes 3:11
