“But we are citizens of heaven, where the Lord Jesus Christ lives. And we are eagerly waiting for him to return as our Savior. He will take our weak mortal bodies and change them into glorious bodies like his own, using the same power with which he will bring everything under his control.” -Philippians 3:20-21

A Time to Think… 
“In all my air travels I have never seen one passenger weep when the plane landed. Never. No one clings to the armrests and begs, “Don’t make me leave! Let me stay and eat more peanuts!” -Max Lucado, pastor, author and teacher

A Time to Act…
What landing are you standing on today? Like Max’s words above, we are willing to exit because the plane has no permanent mailing address…nor does this world! The dread of death ends when you know heaven is your true home. For now, be at rest with yourself, go ahead, eat the peanuts and watch the movie!

A Time to Pray… 
O Lord, it seems surreal to think our true home is with you in heaven, that we are citizens of heaven rather than here on earth. Help us to understand that while we are here on this earth, you are preparing a place for us when you take us home. May we be eagerly waiting for our ticket to land in your eternity where every day all is well and filled with your incredible love. AMEN.
