Our True Home


Hebrews 11:13-16 These all died in faith, not having received the things promised, but having seen them and greeted them from afar, and having acknowledged that they were strangers and exiles on the earth. For people who speak thus make it clear that they are seeking a homeland. If they had been thinking of that land from which they had gone out, they would have had opportunity to return. But as it is, they desire a better country, that is, a heavenly one. Therefore God is not ashamed to be called their God, for he has prepared for them a city.

I love the beauty of this world. I was on a kayak in the middle of a river by myself yesterday. The water, the bald eagles, the trees, the peace just being alone with God and His creation was fantastic. That being said, I also am so saddened by the brokenness in our world. I long for a world unadulterated by sin. A world where the immediacy of God's presence can be seen and felt everywhere.

There is always something so powerful when we get away from all the man made foolishness and evil and just sit in the presence of the God created world and be in awe of His creation.
