(And he came and preached peace to you who were far off and peace to those who were near. For through him we both have access in one Spirit to the Father. So then you are no longer strangers and aliens, but you are fellow citizens with the saints and members of the household of God. Ephesians 2:17-19 ESV)
Hymn ELH 474:1,4 I’m But a Stranger Here
I’m but a stranger here;
Heav’n is my home.
Earth is a desert drear;
Heav’n is my home.
Danger and sorrow stand
Round me on ev’ry hand.
Heav’n is my fatherland;
Heav’n is my home.
Therefore I murmur not;
Heav’n is my home.
Whate’er my earthly lot;
Heav’n is my home.
And I shall surely stand
There at my Lord’s right hand.
Heav’n is my fatherland;
Heav’n is my home.
Prayer
Heavenly Father, thank You for making me a citizen of heaven by grace, through faith in Your Son, Jesus Christ. In His name I pray. Amen.
