After an inane conversation with a resident of Mitchell here in western Nebraska, I have realized that (at least during this ten day trip to PA) I can resonate with how we should ideally be living as Christians.
We have left our old home behind in Denver; and although we have a home in Stroudsburg, we feel homeless because we aren't there yet (and it doesn't feel like home). When someone in the last 24 hours has asked 'where's home,' we haven't quite been sure how to respond. Denver is home; and yet Eastern PA is now home... kind of!
This is how I should be living as a Christian. I am kind of home here on earth; and yet I should be anticipating my home in heaven... while living as a Christ-one here on earth for His glory no matter what I am doing.
Hard...yes... redeeming... yes!
