This morning I actually read my daily Advent booklet instead of checking out my favorite blogs. I was thinking about how it's a priority to me this Advent season to focus more on the coming of Christ, and less on the coming sales at Target.
The scripture today talked about how God is the builder of the city that our souls are residing in. He has built the walls, he has provided the salvation and he is, essentially, the foundation of my "city." While reading this I quickly realized that I don't always feel like I'm a citizen of God's city that he has built for me (and for all of mankind). Many times, in my little "dark night of the soul", I've felt like a stranger, a foreigner in unknown parts.
So today I'm going to try to learn the language of God a little bit more... to focus on making myself more at home, because I'm here to stay, forever.
