Welcome Home!
Welcome Home! That's what I hear from the US border agents every time I return to the US from a trip abroad. I get that greeting because I am a citizen of the US. I am also a citizen of heaven and so is my friend Wendy. Wendy is dying of cancer. She is only 25. I've been spending a lot of time in prayer for her and this passage just gave me a lot of comfort. It reminds me that soon Wendy's body, which has been ravaged by this terrible disease, will be replaced with a glorious body like that of our Savior's. Soon she will no longer have any pain or discomfort. She has fought the good fight but I know soon she will be heading home. In my mind's eye I can see her being embraced by Jesus saying, "Welcome Home!"
