Millennial Longings

Somebody I know was sad last night. He has had this longing in his heart to have a pet fox. He has checked out books on foxes, read about foxes on the internet; and came to the sad conclusion yesterday that foxes do not make good pets. I had warned him, telling him that some animals even if they are raised in a home from birth, just have the natural instinct to be wild and can turn on their owners. His "research" told him that indeed is true.

He was very very sad. He said, "I guess I just have to wait til the Millennial Kingdom to have a pet fox!"

I wonder how many of our Longings in this life will be answered only in the Millennial Kingdom! What about yours?
