Friends...

Seems kinda silly that i would be writing on such a subject. (I tend to be distant and somewhat non-caring at times in my relationships with others, and that just begins the long list of faults with others I have...) But I got to meet with someone so neer and dear to me yesturday that I havent been able to speak with for a very long time. It is interesting, but when David Beattie said to me that there are only a handful of people in his life that he ever felt connected to I was sad, and kind of fearful in becoming close to anyone. The person I met with yesturday is just as screwed up as me (maybe a little less) and when i sit back and look at how much I care for her, I become fearful. (For the obvious trust and so on issues in Jo Potts life.) I have been asking myself, if we as humane beings have been made to be in relationship primarily with God and secondly with one another, then why would we not take full advantage of loving and being loved by others. I guess some healing in my own life is taking place, and I almost feel like God has so carfully handpicked this amazing friend. There are few people in my life that I connect with, hurt for, and love so deeply.

People continually ask me if when we get to heaven we will be able to recognise one another... Right now we live in the physical, and therefore everything about others consumes us in the physical. (consumes not the right word maybe.) Sometimes we have a small glimps (some of us more than others) of a bothers or sisters heart / soul / spirit, and being there with them is a sacred thing, it is a small doorway into the eternal (I think). All of this is like sky, cloudy, Jo Pott theory... When we get to heaven I think we will be able to recognise one anothers spirits, through Christ, and the Physical will be a thing of the past... we may have moments or memories of the physical, but the spirit or soul of another will be the main thing we see. Just a thought. Let me know what you think. I obviously cant back this up scripturally, let me know if you can... Later guys...
