The time to love is now. When we love, we enter into the mystery of eternity. Nothing offered in love is ever lost, for this mortal life is not the whole story. This life is to the next a kind of school, a kind of preparation for the the me you were meant to be. That person will go into eternity. What matters most is not what you accomplish; it is who you become.
“The Spirit and the bride say, ‘Come!’ And let all who hear say, ‘Come!’ ” It is the last, best invitation in the Bible.
Don’t miss the wedding, God says. Save the last dance for me.
(John Ortberg, The Me I Want To Be)
