“The sky looks different,” he said.
The sky looks different because you’re closer to eternity than the rest of us are right now. The veil between heaven and earth has grown thinner, and you can see it. The sky has shifted from being a backdrop to a promise.
The sky looks different because suddenly you’re seeing it without distraction. The ever-changing color palette of God. The timeless movement from light to dark. All the things we rush past. The sky hasn’t changed. You have.
The sky looks different because you see God. His creation. His invitation. Something you’ve always believed is now drawing very near.
The sky looks different because you’re almost home.
