Have you ever thought about the fact that we are eternal beings in Christ? That means that we never will taste death. At some point we will shed our flesh body, but we do not die, we live on, and we will eternally. So we're already eternal beings.

According to God's calendar of 1000 years is a day...I'm not even an hour and a half old yet. I'm about to turn 56 in June. So spiritually, how mature could I be by now? Lol!

How long do eternal beings live? That long eh? So we're like, children. Little children. Even men in the old testament lived 800 to 900 years or more. That's a long time. I bet to live that long one would grow so wise, that, life got easier for them. Just a guess, but I think the first 100 years must be the hardest. lol.

Kinda like running a marathon. The first mile is always the hardest!
 
I have had a taste of ... stepping outside of time. It was remarkable. Life changing.
It's so cool when God shares His perspective with us!

My mind still can not begin to fathom Eternity. We can't even say that's "a really long time."
