Aliens

Numbers 11:16-17, 24-29
Psalms 87, 90
Ephesians 2:11-22
Matthew 7:28-8:4

Ephesians 2:11-22


We are aliens, foreigners. There is growing excitement about the presidential elections. Locally I feel left out that I cannot vote in the school board elections- I know one of the candidates. We pay our taxes, federal and local. But representation, vote, an integral part of the decision making democratic system? No, were are aliens.
But we are part of God's kingdom, working together with our church family members to show God's love in an alien world. We want God to live among us and work through us so that we can be his hands and eyes and heart.
