I kind of like being sad. You appreciate the things around you, and you can feel self-pity without feeling guilty. OK, that's not the best way to think about it. Grief is also epic, and it denotes change.
So, I kind of like grief, and I'm thinking, 'bummer, we can't be sad in heaven.".
Well...maybe. Sadness could also be us changing right? And if we're learning more and more about God, then we change, right? So we continually learn how bad we've been (even though we're perfect now) and God jumps in and says 'forgiven!' and we get this sorrow mixed with incredible thankfulness joy.
I thinks that's beautiful, don't you?
I would enjoy dying with grief and gratitude, keeling over in wonderful pain before the cross as I am purified once again.
Maranatha Lord Jesus!
Come quickly I'm getting impatient!
