How do you describe your life? How do you think God would describe your life? Do you approach situations and decisions from your own point of view or do you try to apply them to God’s perspective? The wrong perspective can distort a simple scenario in all directions, something the enemy loves to do. A good way to keep a proper perspective is to know where you are from. Citizenship is a precious thing, ask a Roman soldier or one of the homeless masses on our border! Knowing where you’re citizenship is from, where you belong, is truly a precious thing. We are only a vapor that appears for a short time and then vanishes. Our true place, our true home, our citizenship is in Heaven! We are simply aliens passing through! Keep that perspective in mind, think more of being an ambassador with a diplomacy plan to implement. Be obedient to the One that sent you, follow His rules of engagement, and do your best to make converts of the foreign peoples. We haven’t sang one of my favorite songs, “Where I Belong,” for some time but if you sing the chorus a couple times a day, It will definitely help you keep the proper perspective. “All I know is I’m not home yet, this is not where I belong. Take this world and give me Jesus, this is not where I belong!”
