Today’s Blog: Feeling uprooted?

TODAY’S PROVERB: The righteous will never be uprooted, but the wicked will not dwell in the land. Proverbs 10:30, TLV

Have you ever felt uprooted. Like you didn’t belong, anywhere? I have. In our 45 years of marriage, Bob and I have moved nearly 20 times. With that many new homes, we’ve learned how to acclimate to our new location as quickly as possible. The best way to do this is not finding the best route to Walmart, or the best doctors and hairdressers, it is the people. Because, people make a home.

Godly relationships, fellowship, connection will help us dwell well in the land. For us, it’s a lovely village in rural Georgia.

And we’ve also learned that we have to be available — and sometimes, even vulnerable — to build these relationships. Intentional efforts in building friendships.

Still, I know there’s a better land. A land governed eternally by the Creator of the Universe. It is a Kingdom where we belong and never need to feel we are less than we were created to be. Why? Because we were invited and given access through the blood atonement of the King. And, because of Him, we can’t be uprooted.

And wonder of wonders, He wants everyone to accept His invitation. There’s plenty of room — plenty of good land. Our Father wants us to gather all those He has chosen to live there. This is the GOD we serve. This is the GOD we love.

May we dwell well in His Kingdom, my friends.
