5 Now the one who has fashioned us for this very purpose is God, who has given us the Spirit as a deposit, guaranteeing what is to come.
6 Therefore we are always confident and know that as long as we are at home in the body we are away from the Lord. 7 For we live by faith, not by sight. 2 Corinthians 5:5-7
Do you feel more comfortable when you are home? When we were away on vacation, while we stayed in some nice places, we did not always feel at home because we did not have all of our stuff. We didn't have our space which at times can be very disconcerting. The same can be said of our time here on earth. Do you sometimes feel not at home here? Maybe it is because you feel like you don't deserve the beauty around us, or you don't feel worthy to be allowed to be here in your own body. God created us for each other and we definitely deserve to be here in His mind. While this is only our temporary home, we do need to make the most of our time here. Don't forget to be kind to others, love others and treat others with respect. These things while here on earth can make us feel as though we are home because we can have faith that God will take care of us. Don't forget to thank God for our home here, and in Heaven and for providing us a way back to Him.
Have a great weekend.
Matt
