Another DEEP THOUGHT from C S LEWIS: We humans live in time but our Lord destines us for eternity. He therefore, I believe, wants us to attend chiefly to two things, ...to eternity itself, ...and to that point of time which we call the Present. For the Present is the point at which time touches eternity. Of the present moment, and of it only, ... we humans have an experience analogous, ...to the experience which our God has of reality as a whole; ...in it alone freedom and actuality are offered to us. He would therefore have us continually concerned, ...either with eternity (which means being concerned with Him), ...or with the Present, ...either meditating on our eternal union with, ...or separation from Himself, ...or else obeying the present voice of conscience, ...bearing the present cross, ...receiving the present grace, ...giving thanks for the present pleasure. - Adapted from the Screwtape Letters
