2 Worlds

We have just arrived back from our trip in Tassie & it has dawned on us that it feels like we live in two worlds.

One world is full of old friends & family, the other with all new friendships.
One world is quiet & peaceful, the other is very busy & noisy.
One world has 4 seasons in one day, the other is always hot & muggy.
One world has easy fishing, the other not so easy or successful fishing.

Despite all this both feel familiar, & like home.

It feels strange to feel like you are living in two places at once. But maybe for a Christian, this shouldn’t be new!?! We have a life here on earth, yet we live in light of our future home in heaven.
