Eternity in the heart

Recently on tv I saw Episode 4 of the Star Wars movies. This was the first of the 6 and ends with Luke Skywalker and Captain Solo receiving medals for destroying the "Death Star". My heart leaps inside me every time when a movie ends with Good overcoming Evil. I can't begin to count how many times I have been brought to tears of joy when Good is victorious. I am sure it is the same for you. But why? For the answer there are 2 Bible passages that stand out. Ecclesiastes 3: 11 and Romans 1:20 confirm what we already know in our hearts; that there is more to life than the temporal. Ecclesiastes 3:11 seems to communicate our awareness that we are not done when we experience physical death. This is confirmed in the belief systems of every culture in the history of the planet. TO POSSESS ETERNITY IN THE HEART IN OUR SPRITUAL CONSCIOUSNESS IS TO ALSO POSSESS THE REASON FOR ETERNITY. The ultimate purpose for the creation is for God to overcome evil with good. This is the answer. This is why you connect so strongly to movies and stories with this theme. Eternity in your heart knows that God is good and good will prevail. You spend most of your time in life caring for your physical body. When you see good win your spirit is being fed. So don't hold back; let those tears fly! ; It is good for the spirit.
