Yesterday I wrote about a nine-year-old boy named George, who was helping his father work on the farm when he spotted 6-year-old Maggie running across a nearby field. He pointed at her and exclaimed to his father, “I’m going to marry that girl someday!”

He did marry her, and they had 64 wonderful years together.

George died recently, and some might say that his death brought an end to this delightful story of romance. However, we believers know that love will continue on into eternity if we place our trust in Jesus.

As the funeral service came to a close, I overheard Maggie tell George that she would be joining him soon enough. She suggested that he might watch for her to come running to him across a heavenly field.

Who knows? It might happen exactly like that!
