Ten year old Sanyu’s (not her real name) parents enrolled her for music lessons. In the early evening after school, she would sit dejectedly in the living room and strum her guitar while watching her friends across the street play.

One day her parents went with her to one of those “Music to remember” shows where she watched Eva Nanyonga. Now, Eva was an amazing guitarist who even in old age played with great skill. She made the guitar speak tones and twists with amazing creativity. Eva wowed Sanyu with the beauty of her performance. So the Father asked, “What do you think, Sanyu?” She said, “Wow!”                                                                                                                               The Dad looked straight into Sanyu’s face, and said “that could be you a few years from now.” “You just have to practice!” That show, turned Sanyu’s guitar practice around forever. Practice was still hard but the vision of Eva dexterity helped her see what she could become. Today she is an amazing guitarist.                                                       A picture of our future can be a great motivator. If we can only reflect on what it means to live eternally with our heavenly father, our view of this life will change drastically.                                                                                              Are you aware of your eternal destiny? Do you live with eternity in mind?
