eye of the storm

In comparison to today's stormy, windy, and utterly terrible weather, yesterday's 50 degrees seems like paradise.  Yesterday was like the eye of the storm, a moment of peace that is both enjoyable in its own right, but also terrible in that it sets up the contrast of what's to come.

Remembering that all will be made right one day is an eye of the storm.  This world is broken. We can see its effects everywhere.  One day we will be in heaven and there will be no brokenness, and all of the effects of the fall will be reversed, including the cold weather.  Because the new earth is, of course, completely a temperate zone.
