Leave it to me to have to process visiting a married child. Do not get me wrong, we had a very nice trip. I can’t remember if I’ve ever written it here, but I heard something once like that one of the ways to successfully manage male and female differences is to understand that most men are going to be a little bit autistic and women are going to be at least a little bit crazy. These differences sometimes. It’s just still always there.

We actually talked about this in the car. The differences between men and women. He said that as we continue toward glory and then finally reach its pinnacle in the new creation, we will be even more distinctly masculine and even more distinctly feminine. I found it hard to really say, but my view was more that we will be more fully merged to where masculine and feminine will not matter. We will be one. Fully unified and whole.

What that looks like exactly I couldn’t say. Do we have genitalia as new creation men and women? What will we need it for then, and what will be the purpose in the need to be distinguished? He thought I was saying that women will become more like men and men will become more like women. I don’t know what I meant. Just that in Christ, if I am to live that long, I will be more beautiful at 80 or 90 than at any other time in my life.
