(Jesus continued) “They are not of the world, even as I am not of the world. Sanctify them in the truth; Thy word is truth. As Thou didst send Me into the world so I have sent them into the world.”
John 17:16 – 18
Lord Your scripture tells us we are not of this world just as You were not of this world. It tells us this world is not our home. Lord we know that but it is so easy for us to burrow in here and become comfortable. It is easy to forget how fragile life is until something happens beyond our control and we are changed. Then the reality of this verse sets in. Then we realize what You are talking about here. We are here to follow Your will for our lives. We are here to become more and more like You. We are here to be an example to those around us. We are here as Your servants.
Thank You Lord for the joy of being here.
Oh how blessed we are to be called Your children.
Thank You Lord.
