“You’re Not Home Yet.”
I heard a story years ago about a great man of God. He was an old missionary, returning home from many years of service in a foreign country. He had fought the devil, survived many sicknesses, had been away from family and friends for many years, and had won many to the Lord. The plane had to make a stop on the way home. Some “dignitary” was getting off the plane. There was a great crowd and the band played. When the missionary arrived home, there was not one person to meet him. He was so sad. Tears filled his eyes. All of a sudden, the Lord spoke to him and said, “You’re not home, yet.”
No, we are not home yet. We are still “on the front lines.” “I go to prepare a place for you. And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again, and receive you unto myself; that where I am, there ye may be also.” John 14:2-3 — We’re not home yet, but we will be someday. Blessings, Sherry
