me and my shadow

Some people think

that we are all we will ever be

in the here and now.

That's not what the Bible says.

Here on earth in this life we are

mere shadows

of what we will be for eternity with God.

In heaven we will be perfect,

as God intended, 

 before man's fall into sin.

"And

I heard a loud voice from heaven saying,

Behold,

 the Tabernacle of God is with men,

and He will dwell with them,

and they shall be His people

and God Himself

will be with them

and will be their God. 

 And God

will wipe away every tear from their eyes;

there shall be no more death,

nor sorrow,

nor crying;

and there shall be no more pain,

for

the former things have passed away."

Revelation 21: 3&4

What joy!
