A Little Like Heaven

Sometimes moments just stand in your mind. It feels like nothing else in the world matters except what you're doing right then and there. Sometimes there's no doubt that those moments come from Jesus.

Like today, sitting around a campfire holding a little girl who hand a handful of flowers picked just for her. Surrounded by sticky handed kids asking for just one more marshmallow. Sharing stories of who caught the biggest fish, fed the cutest goat, shot the furthest arrow. There was joy in these kids faces that isn't seen many other places.



And in that moment it was like a little shadow of heaven. I wish I could take you all into that moment and you could feel it too, it was like the world all stopped but the music in the background.

There's no place I'd rather be, 
No place I'd rather be, 
Than here in Your Love, Here in Your Love. 

In allegory to heaven in The Chronicles of Narnia, C.S. Lewis says it well:

 The reason we loved the old narnia [earth, here today] is that sometimes it looked a little like this [heaven]. 

Today looked a little like heaven.
