Finding our way back home to God

Morning: Psalm 119:97-120; James 5:13-18; Luke 12:22-31

Eve of Ascension: Psalm 68:1-20; 2 Kings 2:1-15; Revelation 5:1-14

Where will our human striving lead us? It depends on what we strive for. Is it for food or drink or clothing? Is it to live long and prosper? ‘Do not keep worrying’ about these things, says Jesus, but strive for God’s ways and you will have these things too. TS Eliot writes: “We shall not cease from exploration and the end of all our exploring will be to arrive where we started and know the place for the first time.” So, perhaps it is all about finding our way back home to God?
