Do you cringe?

[cheezey]

Frankly, I sooner dream of living forever… not surrounded by angels, clouds, or choirs… but still in this very earth. I want to walk its streets as they change across the centuries. Will they achieve what we have only envisioned? Will Google succeed in its AI research? Will China become a global force to be reckoned with or will it decline? Will my country truly leave its Third World status in 50 years? There are so many questions I want answered but only a long life is even close to guaranteeing.

Yes, this is it. I do not want to leave this earth; it is still beautiful though we must take are of it. We are like His property managers.
But it’s my life that has me anxious to go, and I don’t like that about myself. It is a gift, it’s just amazingly difficult to see it that way right now.

Does anyone else cringe when someone wishes you a “long life?” My insides just wring into knots. I know they are being nice but everyday that I am alive I think, “I can’t wait to see Jesus face to face. I can’t wait to go home.” :bigyikes:

I can’t because I’m already there.
