Sitting Under the Kudzu Vine

So the LORD God appointed a plant and it grew up over Jonah to be a shade over his head.

LONGING FOR MY HOME

I will always long for my home, for the people I love, for the land to which I belong, for the friends and relatives that I miss. I will always long for my wife and my children and grandchildren. But, none of these will ever stop that deep, deep longing for my heavenly home. It is because those who are in Christ, and only those in Christ, belong to another kingdom, another land, another city, another home.

BE STILL

Someone might say, I don’t believe in God or I don’t have time for God. It seems that everyone wants personal peace and meaning. Often we think we have peace but it is just a gaze bandage covering the wounds of our soul. We dare not be still lest the truth overwhelms us. Why live like that? It is the artificial world we have created. Sooner or later that world we collapse, it will fall into the darkness of meaninglessness and you will fall into the hole along with it.
