Not only is the title of this speaking of spiritually but also physically! I am SO sleepy right now and I need to find my way back home and into bed. However instead I will sit here and continue to write on things that I really don't understand..... Not to be blunt or anything. Being lost and away from Home (Jesus) is no fun! But I am finally coming back HOME!!! I just want to know God! I want to know the depths of who he is! Just think about this.... If you ran away from home and continued to RUN as far as you could so that you could get away from what? A loving father whose only desire is to love you and give you every good thing that he can.... and he can give you everything! I have run and run and run from the only good thing that I could ever know! What on earth could I have been thinking!?!
The problem is that I have had a worldly mindset.
I have not had my eyes fixed in eternity like I should. If we fix our eyes on things to come than the things that seem like mountains turn into specks of dust easily brushed into a dust pan and thrown away.
Fix your eyes on things to come. Not meaning next Friday, but eternity!
This is the way that many of us will be able to be martyred in the last days and consider it pure joy! I know that it sounds so crazy but if only we knew God so well that when we are persecuted we could rejoiced in it.
Many of us including myself have not been able to rejoice in our persecution because we can not think beyond next week. Once we are able to set our gaze on things above and not at eye level we will be back home.
Sorry I kinda went off on a rabbit trail there but I tried to bring it back around for you!
