The moment you entered reality

Reflection

The moment you entered reality... Imagine two babies talking in the womb. One believes there's life after birth. The other laughs, insisting that the womb is all there is because it's all they've ever known. Then suddenly, birth happens. In an instant, everything changes. What once seemed like the end was actually the beginning. It's a powerful illustration of how our perspective is limited by what we can currently see. If there is a God, and if eternal life is real, then death may not be the end of existence, but the doorway into a greater reality. "What no eye has seen, what no ear has heard, and what no human mind has conceived, the things God has prepared for those who love Him." — 1 Corinthians 2:9 Sometimes the greatest questions are worth asking before we reach that moment ourselves.

Questions to sit with

• If the womb is all you'd ever known, would you believe there could be more?
• How might death be a doorway rather than a dead end?
• What would change about how you live today if this life is only the beginning?
