Longing For Home

There's a place inside each one of us that longs for more.
We try to give it a name...
If I was just married
If I could just have a child
If I could lose weight
If I could get that job.....
I'm learning that this longing will never be filled by anything on this earth... it's a longing for another Kingdom.
I'm also learning not to despise it.
It's a sacred ache
It's a holy place
It tells us, we're not home yet.
(Sheila Walsh)
"For this world is not our permanent home; we are looking forward to a home yet to come." (Heb.13:14)
