We Are Temporary Residents

For we are strangers before You, and temporary residents, as all our fathers were; our days on the earth are like a shadow, and there is no hope. — 1 Chronicles 29:15

We are strangers before God.

Our days on earth are as a fleeting shadow.

God's plans for us are much greater than we could ever imagine.

Here's the brisket Kirk smoked with Oak.

It was delicious.

But it is simply a brief part of our even briefer life here on earth.

We are temporary residents here.

Just as our forefathers were.

And we are thankful that God has prepared an even better place for us in heaven.

All glory to our Father God.

 

Fix Our Eyes on the Eternal

So we fix our eyes not on what is seen, but on what is unseen, since what is seen is temporary, but what is unseen is eternal. — 2 Corinthians 4:18

Sunday was Father's Day.

It gave us a chance to celebrate Kirk and all he does for our family.

We are thrilled that he is retiring.

But even while working, he took beautiful care of our yard and our roses.

He also kept our house looking amazing by vacuuming and dusting regularly.

Kirk is also an excellent cook.

When he was working, he did not have  chance to cook as often as he would like.

But since the coronavirus hit, he has been able to cook our dinners and lunches much more often.

He is also having a chance to get out and golf with friends.

We are blessed to have such a wonderful father and husband.
