C. S. Lewis


"Meanwhile we groan, longing to be clothed with our heavenly dwelling."~1 Cor. 5:2

There is an impulse deep in our hearts for the things of heaven. God placed it there. He shaped us for eternity & somewhere deep within us we know that. Our impulse may have been distorted when our first parents ate the forbidden fruit, or when we deliberately sinned against God, but we still have it. That's why we always want more no matter how much we have. Everything we think will satisfy us - never does. Eternal impulses are not content with temporal treasures. Our eternal impulse is like an itch. It is cured with a Divine Balm, not an impatient scratch!! Nothing in this world will ever be able to satisfy our hearts!
