We are in a “race”, and at the finish line of our earthly race, there is a gate. Some will not finish, …some will finish and go through the gate…..and some will go through the gate and take others with them. For those who take others with them, the joy of crossing the finish line is multiplied infinitely by the “love they will feel” for those they have taken with them. For they are together, … and they will be oblivious to the streets of gold on which they stand.
