I too often forget that all that I have; my home, my work,
and my diversions are only temporary. I
keep looking for a place to root when I am truly a nomad. I am in the midst of a journey. I am in a race. I am on a pilgrimage.
There are times where I rest and tarry for a space. There are times where I can enjoy the view
but I must remember that I have no lasting home here. I must remember that I am headed somewhere
and the task is to get there well.
Pilgrims to the City of
God – Michael Card
Pilgrims of passion we
follow the One
Who holds out a cross
and a crown
We travel a dark road
that has but one Light
For we have here no
lasting town
Sometimes we run by
the power of His might
On our own at the best
we can plod
What we hopefully look
for is just beyond sight
We are pilgrims to the
city of God
The stigma of
strangers lost in a strange land
In a fallen world
that's not our home
But we are not
homeless prodigals here
Because we have
someplace to go
Sometimes we run by
the power of His might
On our own at the best
we can plod
What we hopefully look
for is just beyond sight
We are pilgrims to the
city of God
Behold you have come
to Mount Zion
The the City of Great
King
To thousands and
thousands of angels who've come
Assembled to joyfully
sing
Sometimes we run by
the power of His might
On our own at the best
we can plod
What we hopefully look
for is just beyond sight
We are pilgrims to the
city of God
Wishing you joy in the journey,
Aramis Thorn
Mat 13:52 So Jesus said to them, "That is why every writer
who has become a disciple of Christ’s rule of the universe is like a home
owner. He liberally hands out new and old things from his great treasure
store."
