Picking up where we left off last week, here’s another word from Captain Obvious…

Despite any impressions to the contrary, the nature of the story that we’re all part of is one of God coming here, not us going somewhere else.

In the beginning, God sets things up and comes here.

In the middle, God becomes man and comes here so that the Holy Spirit can stay here indwelling us.

In the end, God comes to dwell here forever.

In the meantime, Jesus gave us this prayer to keep on praying…

May [God’s] kingdom come and will be done on earth as in heaven.

So there’s the story. There you have it. We may face some challenges in the meantime while we pray and anticipate God’s coming, but he is coming.
