Homecoming

I know i would said that i would post about feminism, but im going to put that on hold for a week.

I have a friend who has been in South Korea for a little over a year. we have been best friends since high school and still stayed close over college. It is such a wonderful friendship that God has blessed me tremendously with, and not getting to see her this year has been really hard. All of this to say that she is back. My friend is here in Texas and i get to see her TODAY. I love homecomings because it makes me think that its just a small sliver of what going home to heaven will be like. Today i will see Lindsay, and i will give a her a really big hug and most definitely be crying, and even though im going to have to go home in a few days were just 5 hours away as opposed to an ocean between us. But were still here on earth, i will still be growing in sanctification and i will still be confronted with sin, and im sure that ill even have a few arguements with my friend and other people too.

But in heaven we will be together with our brothers and sisters, there will be no more sin, and no more judgement. yes we will get to be with the redeemed in christ and hopefully family and friends, but they wont be the main thing. We will finally get to be with Christ and all the fullness of him.

I encourage you today to remember that this is not your home. That God is preparing our hearts for the fullness of Him. And even though there are great things on this earth like husbands and babies and food and ginger ale, God is still better.

Grace and Peace.
