Here but There

Posted on Thursday, November 3, 2016

And never truly anywhere anymore. But that's how it all goes, I suppose, in such a liminal time that I haven't asked for--but have borrowed, so it's never truly mine. One thing I've been given, of such freedom for me, was costly for Him and yet He sought to set free: the slave, the captive, all that know only bondage to tears, pain, and suffering--we're told that we're wanted. He's come, lived, and died--and lived again that's for sure. To be sure of this truth or we're worse off than before. 

And so what does this do, what's this mean for our lives? Sure, we can run in this race, and achieve heaven's prize. We know analogies aren't perfect, this one's no exception--don't leave any behind on the way to perfection. Because loving is obeying, and obeying is worship, we can't truly do this alone--in the church we go furthest. We're told to love Him, with all of our might--so how do we do this? Well, look left and look right.

So we're here but there, are we ever truly anywhere anymore? I'd argue it's less location than vocation. Deep in Father's heart we find affirmation. In who we are, and who we'll be, and also of others just as importantly.
