An Alien Citizenship

Whether or not you were born and raised in Hong Kong or are just a visitor, there are times we all feel like we’re somewhere we don’t really belong. As the song says, “This world is not my home; I’m just a-passing through.” Our lives here are certainly important, but they pale in comparison to our ultimate, amazing, fantastic home above.

Prayer: Father God, I admit the politics and ways of this world often frustrate me. Some days it seems we’re at a standstill; others that we’re going headlong in the wrong direction. Help me to be patient with the ‘here and now’ while I look forward to the day when I reach ‘home’ with you. In Jesus’ name, Amen.
