Final Destination
A sincere journey of faith results in a twist of desire. The relationship that started with a desire for the property of God, would have grown to the desire for the person of God. No fulfilment in either the physical or spiritual things, here below, can remove the passion for the place where God lives. " Keep what you've got in your hands, and let's get going... ", becomes the axiom of heroes of faith. "That they did not receive these promises before they died?". "But rather, it was their expectations that got changed; and God was pleased to accommodate them". Heaven, not earth, is the final destination of a journey of faith. NO matter the glamour of the things on earth, the heroes of faith know that their glories are transient. Faith retains the clamour for God; it is the thread that connects the heart of man with God. It is the baby-sitter that keeps man busy on earth, until the face of God is seen. Oh, that we may really have faith in God.
