By faith he sojourned in the land of promise, as in a strange country, dwelling in tabernacles with Isaac and Jacob, the heirs with him of the same promise. (Hebrews 11:9) These all died in faith, not having received the promises, but having seen them afar off, and were persuaded of them, and embraced them, and confessed that they were strangers and pilgrims on the earth. (Hebrews 11:13)

This looks a little like the area where I'm staying in the U.S. - near Durango, Colorado.
Being with family you haven't seen in a while is part of that glimpse into our future in Heaven.
Good to hear from you, Eddie. And thanks for posting this on Facets of Grace.
Yes, I think of that day, well, every day, really. The reunion with those who have gone before us, and those who will follow us. Seeing Jesus face to face. And something that I am still trying to understand, if even a little bit: that which the theologians call the Beatific Vision , seeing God.
But even if I don't understand it here, I am sure I will know it when I do see it.
