The death of *Justice Antonin Scalia has certainly ignited a fire storm.  People are demanding that a new justice be named immediately and others are resisting because we are in an election year.  It seems that politics is going to rule the day.

Someone said recently that when they get to heaven there will be no politicians.  My response was “Thank God.”  One of the great things about living for eternity is that you know no one is going to mess things up in heaven.  There will be no sin, temptation, suffering or campaigns.  What a day it will be when time ceases and God invites His children to join Him.

In the mean time, how should we live?  Although this may seem like a given, it is not. First, we need to get our focus off the here and now.  When we start living for whatever we can accumulate or experience, life will not be fun.  The only way to really get the most out of life is to live for eternity.
