Not My Home

Hebrews 11-13

This world is not my home. Throughout scripture, men of faith have found that their rewards did not come to them in this world... this world can only produce worldly good and worldly evil. It cannot provide the eternal rewards that faith promises. To the worldly, Paul lived a life to be pitied, but he knew something they didn't. He had confidence in the one in whom he hoped and assurance about things he could not see... he was a man of great faith, following in the footsteps of great men and women of faith.

We to can walk in that light if we so choose to throw off the weights of this world that hold us back, especially the sin that trips us up. We do this by keeping our eyes on Jesus... Jesus at home, Jesus at work, Jesus at play, Jesus at church, Jesus at WalMart. Wherever we are, Whatever we are doing, if our sights are set on Jesus he will bring us through any trouble... on the other side.
