Citizens From Where?
Thursday, September 28, 2023
Our View Of Our World Is …
Less Than Perfect,
Sometimes Not Even Usable,
Though We Try.
Psalm 94:14
For the Lord will not forsake his people; he will not abandon his heritage….
Philippians 3:20
But our citizenship is in heaven, and it is from there that we are expecting a Saviour, the Lord Jesus Christ.

Words of Grace For Today
Ali Ens our all wear these daze, ore sew sez
MIB,
Heiding a mung us in grate digits frum a square the galaxies, given san shoe airie on urth frum all zorts of conflix, wars, and be four ju dices.
Wee, sew sez Paul, are city zenz from heave end, one of the great ‘out there’ places bee yond the urth.
Except, then alzzo Paul sez, that the Ruler Dumb of good iz knot just in heave end but also hear on urth. And Jesus sez (so sae the Go spells) that the Ruler Dumb of good iz kum near, left ear amung us.
So it is hard to understand, a word that is alien to our minds, yet God has not abandoned us to poor understandings and spellingz.
Aliens are everywhere these days, or so says
MIB,
hiding among us in great numbers from around the galaxies, given sanctuary on earth from all sorts of conflicts, wars, and prejudices.
We, so says Paul, are citizens from heaven, one of the great ‘out there’ places beyond the earth.
Except, then also Paul says, that the Kingdom of God is not just in heaven but also here on earth. And Jesus says (so say the Gospels) that the Kingdom of God is come near, right here among us.
God is with us,
Thank God.
This is the World God Gives Us.
Otherwise, who nose wear we wood bee?!
