As a maturing human, I am beginning to see the gravity of life and many of the burdens that are yet to come, while as a maturing Christian I am beginning to taste the depths of joy that I never knew existed--joy so strong you just feel like you have to go out and pull a Sound of Music (you know, find some grassy hill and run up it singing with your arms wide open--with no breathy notes, of course).
When I get to Heaven I may remember the sorrowful, heavy moments, but I think those feelings will be overshadowed with such joy that I drew closer to Jesus because of them that I will have nothing to do but LITERALLY pull a Sound of Music and sing to the Father my love, my adoration, and my overwhelming joy!!
"My cup runneth over. . . "
