“We are halfhearted creatures, fooling about with drink and sex and ambition when infinite joy is offered us, like an ignorant child who wants to go on making mud pies in a slum because he cannot imagine what is meant by the offer of a holiday at the sea. We are far too easily pleased.”
(C.S.Lewis, ‘ The Weight of Glory ‘)
God has so much to offer us. And we just settle. We often live our lives not knowing what is out there, what God has in store for us. We do not have to live like this. We can soar, like an eagle, instead of living the life of a chicken.
Thanks Norm for posting this. It is good, especially at this time of year to see what we can aspire to. God has great things in store for us!
