“At present we are on the outside of the world, the wrong side of the door. We discern the freshness and purity of the morning, but they do not make us fresh and pure. We cannot mingle with the splendours we see. But all the leaves of the New Testament are rustling with the rumor that it will not always be so. Some day, God willing, we shall get in.”
- C.S. Lewis, The Weight of Glory (New York, NY: HarperOne, 2001), 43.
Oh! When I read something like this, I am reminded of just how much I want to "get in"!!! Maranatha! Even so, Lord Jesus, quickly come.
