If you’re of a certain age, you’re old enough to remember mimeograph copies. Many schools used them. They pre-dated photocopies. Very poor reproductions of the original. Sometimes they were barely legible. Well, spiritually speaking, as compared to God’s original plan for this world, it’s as though we’re living in a smudged, wrinkled mimeograph of what He had in mind.

As believers, we know we’re going to heaven. One day, we’ll walk the streets of gold and be overwhelmed by the presence of the Lord Himself.
