That’s plain enough, isn’t it? You’re no longer wandering exiles. This kingdom of faith is now your home country. You’re no longer strangers or outsiders. You belong here, with as much right to the name Christian as anyone. Ephesians 2:19, The Message
I think I was the only one blown away by this at the Bible study this morning. Four people sat around my breakfast table… they all read this and only one was blown away. To hear those words "you belong here" may be the most powerful thing that the church offers but we just take it for granted.
How I long to look across the table and know that everyone feels like they belong.
