We Do Not Belong to This World

Jesus reminds us that we do not belong to this world.  We have been sent into the world to be living witnesses of God's unconditional love, calling all people to look beyond the passing structures of our temporary existence to the eternal life promised to us.
-- Henri Nouwen

We are, in short, to emulate Jesus in word and in deed in this world, for by doing so we are showing the world that we are not of it, that we are foreigners in it, that this world is not our home.

I want to be a sanctuary of His presence here until He gets us home.
