Living Today in Light of the Gift of Heaven

In the book "For a Time We Cannot See" Crawford Loritts establishes the subtle longing written in the heart of every true follower of Jesus Christ for heaven, the dwelling place of God. He goes on to point out the inconsistency of our fragmented, harried, perspective on achievement, and affluence. He then challenges the reader to rather than living for the present surrender ourselves to the call of heaven, a destiny of meaning and significance. Filled with profound, thought provoking challenges the reader is called to consider the very foundational truths of the Christian life, accountability for our choices, and the promise of reward for endurance in our Christian walk. The book is filled with contemporary illustrations, examples from the lives of Christian leaders, and Biblical stories of men committed to living in obedience to the will of God. The summary statements and stimulating questions in the form of side bars and topical headers within the narrative add to the meaningful reading adventure the book provides. Loritts calls the reader to surrender to Christ daily, to stay focused, to persevere, and to excellence in service. He describes the inner desire for significance and the importance of keeping perspective and focusing our accomplishments on God, investing in others, and helping others come to know the Savior. The reader is challenged to be fervent, to leave a legacy of praise, to live a life of intentional integrity, to pursue holiness, and to finish strong. "For A Time We Cannot See" calls the reader to live in light of Eternity. Crawford Loritts is a gifted communicator. His writing is relevant, heartwarming and challenging. This is inspirational reading at its finest.
