Misfits

Isaiah 56:1-8

I always like readings that talk about foreigners and aliens. Yes we are misfits. We might look as if we are natives bu the moment we open our mouth the truth is revealed. We speak normally, no local drawl. To be God is G. O. D., one syllable and definitely no hint of an A as in "Gad said". My pets are dogs, not dawgs and my pet peeve - if I have visited a place then I have been there not bin there.
So it is with those who follow God. One cannot necessarily tell a person's nationality by looking at them. Neither is one's loyalty determined by one's nationality. I hope that I am an oddball and a misfit for God whichever country is my home.
