Something Else

God has made everything beautiful for its own time. He has planted eternity in the human heart, but even so, people cannot see the whole of God's work from beginning to the end.

Could this be why at times our life's journey can seem a veritable wilderness? When I am in the moment, I find it difficult to see beyond it. Sure, I can make plans or reminisce, but I cannot fathom what is actually beyond now, nor can I change what was.

This human limitation builds within me an anticipation. Deep within my spirit a question breaks through in sudden clarity: Surely, now isn't all there is, is it?

God has planted eternity in the human heart.

What is eternity and why do I long for it?
