<p><strong>Scripture: 2 Corinthians 4:16–5:10</strong></p><p><br></p><p><strong>+ We will be made glorious like Jesus.</strong></p><p><br></p><p><strong>+ We will be at home with Jesus.</strong></p><p><br></p><p>Most people, if they had really learned to look into their own hearts, would know that they do want and want acutely something that cannot be had in this world. There are all sorts of things in this world that offer to give it to you, but they never quite keep their promise. The longings which arise in us when we first fall in love, or think of some foreign country, or first take up some subject that excites us, our longings which no marriage, no travel, no learning, can really satisfy. I am not now speaking of what would be ordinarily called unsuccessful marriages, or holidays, or learned careers. I&#39;m speaking of the best possible ones. There was something we grasped at, in that first moment of longing, which just fades away in the reality. I think everyone knows what I mean.” – C.S. Lewis, Mere Christianity. </p><p><br></p><p>“Creatures are not born with desires unless satisfaction for those desires exist. A baby feels hunger: well, there is such thing as food. A duckling wants to swim: well, there is such thing as water… If I find in myself a desire which no experience in this world can satisfy, the most probable explanation is that I was made for another world. If none of my earthly pleasures satisfy it, that does not prove that the universe is a fraud. Probably earthly pleasures were never meant to satisfy it, but only to arouse it, to suggest the real thing.” – C.S. Lewis, Mere Christianity. </p><p><br></p><p><em>John 17:24 NIV</em></p><p><br></p><p><strong>+ We will be rewarded by Jesus</strong></p><p><br></p><p><em>Revelation 20:11–15 NIV</em></p><p><em>Colossians 2:13–14</em></p><p><em>1 Corinthians 3:10–15 NIV</em></p>
