If It’s Monday, It’s Mama…
 
This World Is Not My Home”….

Madison….. 

There is a song which says to you what I want to share with you this week… 

This world is not my home
 I'm just a passing through
My treasures are laid up
Somewhere beyond the blue
The angels beckon me from heaven's open door
 
 
 
And I can't feel at home in this world anymore
 
Oh Lord you know I have no friend like you
If heaven's not my home then Lord what will I do
The angels beckon me from heaven's open door
And I can't feel at home in this world anymore

 

On my list of things I hope to teach you while I am on this earth….remembering this is in the top 10.   

This world….the good of it, the bad of it….
 
is NOT your home. 

The family you have been born into is a gift from God to help you through this world.  The friends you chose, the place you worship, your employer…..all are here to help you walk through this life. 

That is why it is important to be careful whom you chose to make a part of your life…..
That is why it is important to be careful where you seek to work
That is why it is important to be wise in who you chose to be-friend
 

However, more important than any of that is that is why it is important to remember whom you live for…. 

God cannot be where satan is. 

If you want to be a Godly woman, then you need to surround yourself with Godly people. 

Surround. 

There is no perfect surrounding of yourself.
 

But, what you can do is chose… 

Chose this day….chose every day to set the standard that God will be your center…..the heart of your temple, your body, your soul, your family… 

Baby….chose Him daily…..at times, chose him moment to moment, because ultimately HE is the only one who will be able to guide you in the way you should go… 

He will love you perfectly

He will stay with you perfectly

He will guide you perfectly

He will teach you perfectly
 

Noone else you will ever know will have His ability to do this for you….
 

Noone
 

Not even me, who was blessed to birth you, can help you find Him the way He can.
 

And, in that choosing, you need to remember…HIS ways are not our ways, not the world’s ways, not the “fair” ways…
 

But, His ways are the perfect ways…
 

And, the only way you can handle this knowing and understanding is to understand that  

As lovely as your life is, this life is not where your “home” is

As beautiful as your family, they are not where your spiritual home is

As wonderful as your job, your friends, your fun, they are not your home….
 

Home is and always be where God is…. 

So, as you traverse the roads in your life….as you make decisions….where to live, where to go to school, what to chose as a profession, which church to worship in, who to marry, how many children to ask for…and on and on…
 

Remember, it only will matter IF you remember
 

THIS world is not your Home
 

Home is where God is….

Blessings,
 

ILYAOYMC,

Mama
