Some Infinities are Bigger than other Infinities

There is book.  I'm sure you've all heard of.  There was a movie made from this book.  That I'm sure most of you have seen.

In this book/movie there is a scene.  I will not go into complete details about the scene, for if you haven't seen it... details would give the movie away.  But there is quote... that when I hear it in the book or in the movie it brings me to tears.

I was thinking about thinking about this earlier as I was re-watching the movie.  The quote says this
Some infinities are bigger than others, a writer we used to like taught us that... I cannot tell you how thankful I am for our little infinity. You gave me a forever within the numbered days.  And for that I am eternally grateful.  I love you so much.
I cry every time in this scene.  Only this time did I look at it through a different lens.  God gives us forever.  He gives us forever with him and a numbered amount of days on this earth.  His infinity is the greatest infinity.  Yet each of us has a little infinity with him.  A day, minute, second, that our relationship started.  Our little infinity started at the very moment we believed in him and it will never end.

Unlike the movie/book... our little infinity goes on and on even after death.  We have eternity with our God and Father.

My tears are more for this fact than they are for this quote in book/movie.  My tears are of joy... knowing that my infinity will never end and that God has given me a forever with him.

Praise Jesus.
