Meditate.
And so a whole nation came from this one man (Abraham) who was as good as dead—a nation with so many people that, like the stars in the sky and the sand on the seashore, there is no way to count them. All these people died still believing what God had promised them. They did not receive what was promised, but they saw it all from a distance and welcomed it. They agreed that they were foreigners and nomads here on earth. Obviously people who say such things are looking forward to a country they can call their own. If they had longed for the country they came from, they could have gone back. But they were looking for a better place, a heavenly homeland. That is why God is not ashamed to be called their God, for he has prepared a city for them. Hebrews 11:12-16 (Underlined for emphasis.)

Who doesn’t want a better place…a heavenly home? Do you? Believe in Jesus Christ as your Savior and claim your promised home in Heaven. Come and join those of us who believe.
Prayer ~ Lord, just as You were not ashamed to be called God by all those faithful believers, I hope that You are not ashamed to be my God—my Savior. Thank You that You have created a better place—a heavenly home. It is a place I long to be. Come quickly, Jesus.
Verse of Salvation ~ For Jesus is the one referred to in the Scriptures, where it says, 'The stone that you builders rejected has now become the cornerstone.' There is salvation in no one else! God has given no other name under heaven by which we must be saved." Acts 4:11-12
