)"For I am a stranger WITH You (God), a sojourner, as were all my fathers [of faith] before me." ~ Kind DavidThis is the confession of the harsh reality for the authentic believer... who attempts to function on his own understanding and strength, in a world he no longer fits in. The kingdom of the converted are simply outnumbered. They are a strange kingdom, functioning in a world that is densely populated with those that fit much better in this world system than they do. But sometimes these shortsighted and worldly minded people get the best of you.He tried doing life his way... the conclusion was: "certainly every man at his best state is but a vapor.Surely every man walks about life a shadow; surely they busy themselves in vain; he heaps up wealth and material things and does not have a clue who will gather his things [after his death]" (Psalm 39:5-6).Strangers... walking WITH a Strange God, through a Strange world, living with a Strange Hope, serving a Strange Word, by a Strange Means, to a Strange People who know NOTHING of their Strange Life.
