There was nothing quite like stepping off the plane after a week away from my family to be greeted by my daughter holding up the sign you see in the picture to your left. "Welcome Home Daddy" brought tears to my eyes! Home-it is where my heart is. As much as I love living in West Monroe, Louisiana. U.S.A. I'm just passing through. It is not my permanent residence! We are citizens of heaven anxiously awaiting the day we stand before our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. When I was in Guatemala I had exchanged some U.S. currency for their currency. The last day I was there I thought to myself, "Self, I can't take this money back to the U.S. because it would be no good there. I better give this stuff away here while it is still useful." I thought to myself wow, that's just like our lives here on earth. Why do we live in such a way as if we could take anything with us when we step into eternity? We can't! So why don't we give our resources here on earth, while there is still time, because we can't take it with us to heaven!
Be blessed!
