In 1969 Joe South sang, “Don’t It Make You Want to Go Home.” It was about an individual who returned to his hometown only to find it no longer existed. It reminds me of my trips to where I grew up. Tears fill my eyes as I realize it only exists in my memory and imagination. Joe belts out, “Oh God, I want to go home.”
I’m glad there is a home in my future that will never be destroyed by time.
But our citizenship is in heaven, and from it we await a Savior, the Lord Jesus Christ,
In my Father’s house are many rooms. If it were not so, would I have told you that I go to prepare a place for you?
Give it some consideration.
