My family and I were discussing this just last night.

​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​Someone brought up Lewis and his idea that the inconsolable longing we carry for something this world cannot satisfy is evidence of what we were made for.

Our thought was we flourish when we finally understand where we’re actually going. When we recognize what true glory looks like and who is Lord over what makes it glorious.

I believe there is a temptation to reduce this to a passing through. As I reflect back on last nights conversation I wonder if everyone understood it as such?

It is not a passing. It is flourish-maxing as the kids would say.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​ And there is weight and responsibility to bring that glory here.
